in reply to Running or not running

are you calling other programs (batch files) from one master batch program?....in which case check ERRORLEVEL windows environment variable. type HELP IF at commandline. if it's a standalone batch program...use "ECHO here i am" or "ECHO here i am >test.txt" to see that your program runs.

    Just a correction.

    ERRORLEVEL is not an environment variable. It's just a keyword known to the IF statement of the shell.
