I can't get the DOS commands to work. The manual tells me to open up the script directory but I can't get there. I have triedcd C:\ProgramFiles\CoreDesign\trle\Script and start """" and goto """" and run """" and open """" I have also tried changing the capitals letters to small letters. If anyone knows what I am doing wrong or knows how to do it please help. Oh and another thing the prompt is always c:\WINDOWS>. Should this be, because I can't get it to just be C:. If this is a problem and you know how to fix it please let me know. Thank Ya. IP: Logged |

You need to type the following at the command prompt:C:\CD\Progra~1\Corede~1\trle\script [Enter] This should take you to the correct directory, you could also write your own batch file to do all the work for you, when you want any easy way for conversion.

In dos you can't use names longer than 8 characters. If you're not sure how to type the name than type 'dir' when you are in your root directory. If there's a lot in your directory then type 'dir/p' to get one page at the time. you should be able to get in your C directory by typing 'cd c:\'
