I think you can just use the "Call" command in your batch file.
The batch file should delay execution until the call command finishes.

Call myprogram.exe
Call mysecondprogram.exe

Haven't done much batch coding lately

What devilishness are you up to if I may ask?

P.S. If it is really bad, don't tell me.

Solaris17 · Apr 28, 2008

my modded forceware

i need to execute 2 diff exe's the drivers need to install first than the second after. but installing drivers takes mroe than 99seconds so i need to figure out how to stall it more

That isn't as much fun as creating a program that continually rick rolls people

Do I sense a little of Therm's evil side?

@Sol ...

Doesn't the Call command delay batch execution until the executable returns ?
No matter how long that is ? Or do you need to wait for a set period after the executable returns?

This is how I thought it worked ...

Start batch file
Call program.exe
Batch file stops and waits
program.exe finishes
Batch file continues again

start /d "C:\path\filename1.exe" filename1.exe
TIMEOUT (up to 100000 seconds) 100000
start /d "C:\path filename2.exe" filename2.eve

you should use a close event than open a new .exe, not a timer or you can save your self some trouble.
