Hi,
To do it in this format there are two ways. This is the best way.
go to your autoexec.bat file. go to the bottom of it and type SET
PATH=C:\SIERRA\NASCAR2 . that shall do it.C:\stands for the drive
letter you installed n2. then was the path. this shall let the bat work
from any dir you are in to start n2. exept there is problems. so i will
emaili you the better modifyied bat file to do your idea so you won't get
any error. Also for you newsgroup people, sorry for posting the file but i
didn't feel like redoing this post 2 plus the email trick.

Mike,

Here it is, clean and easy.

From the DOS prompt, type:

Copy Con N2.bat <enter> (to start the file edit)
cd\ <enter> (to back you out of any directory you may be in)
c:\SIERRA\NASCAR2\NASCAR2.EXE <enter> (or whatever the N2 path)

Now, to end the file edit, hold down the control key and press "Z".
Stick a copy of this file in your Windows directory; that way you can
get to it straight from there, if your computer reboots to DOS and
leaves you in the Windows directory. When you see <enter> above, don't
type it, this just means hit the enter key.

God Bless,
Steve

Open the file n2.bat in a text editor like Notepad or DOS edit. You can
delete the first
line which runs the intro. Then save the file.. when you type in n2.bat
from DOS, the batch file will skip the intro and run the program.

l8r,

Gordon
