28975 2001-12-29 00:05:00 I have just tried the Print Directory batch file from Dec 2001 NZPCW (p 131).

When I right-click and Send to ... I get the file opening in Notepad, instead of running. Probably because I have set the default action of a BAT file to EDIT instead of RUN, so that I can double-click on a BAT file and edit it instead of having it run.

Is there a solution, or do I have to choose?

Change that default to RUN. You can always 'Open with' to edit them.
