I've never used either of those progs before.. so I dunno the exact details of them, but have you considered just making a simple dos batch file? in case you've never made one before: just fire up notepad, on the first line put the full dxtweak command, hit enter, on the second line put the full command for f1 2001, save the file as anything.bat, and run the .bat file "Richard S Beckett" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:ae2j54$[email hidden]... > x-no-archive: yes > > ...Create an icon that will run dxtweak with command line options, allowit > to terminate, then run f12001? > > Thanks. > > Stooopid. >

From the sounds of it to me he wants it to be fully automatic, open DXTweak, set his pre-set options then open F12K1 after shutting down DXTweak. Also I _think_ the Batch file wouldn't allow a auto shutdown of a "shelled" program. - Isotrip�
