860 1998-11-24 06:46:00 Is it possible to write a batch file to start/open all
contents in a folder residing on the desktop.
It would be an advantage to use this folder to insert
shortcuts/documents/programs that you want to open at
startup time but not automatically as with the startup
folder.
This would speed up restarts which are normally slowed
by Office shortcut bars, Norton programs etc.

It would also give the user great flexibility as to what
they want to start by simply dragging files, programs
or shortcuts to and from this folder and running them
all at once when required.
ie Sometimes they may not want office etc if they have
only turned on the PC for games or to check email.
Items from the automatic Startup folder could be removed
or transferred to this folder.
