brain is tired, how do you do a simple dos menu, with options say 1 to 6, and if a user types 3, it goes to 3, and does something?

Try looking at some of the links in the other DOS thread -- the ericphelps site is great for this stuff.

NT DOS doesn't, w2k DOS does

use the choice command... can copy to nt4 as far as I can remember...

for Example:

@echo off
LH A:\NWCLIENT\LSL.COM
ECHO.
echo What type of Network Card is Installed ?
echo.
echo [O] Olicom
echo [D] Digital
echo [N] NE2000
echo [X] NetFlex-3
echo [C] Compaq/Intel Fast Ethernet
echo [T] Toshiba Laptop Xircom
echo.
choice /C:ODNXCT
echo.
IF ERRORLEVEL 6 GOTO XIRCOM
IF ERRORLEVEL 5 GOTO COMPAQ
IF ERRORLEVEL 4 GOTO NETFLEX
IF ERRORLEVEL 3 GOTO NE2000
IF ERRORLEVEL 2 GOTO DIGITAL

:OLICOM
LH A:\NWCLIENT\OCE4XODI.COM
GOTO END

:NETFLEX
LH A:\NWCLIENT\CPQNF3.COM
goto END

I can email you a copy if you need.

Or use dos 6.22 boot menu???

Such as

Config.sys


[MENU]
menuitem=olicom,MS Network Connection (Olicom)
menuitem=digital,MS Network Connection (Digital DC21143)
menuitem=n100,MS Network Connection (Compaq N100)
menuitem=el90,MS Network Connection (3Com 3c90x - Dell)
menuitem=ne2000,MS Network Connection (NE2000)

[common]
device=a:\net\himem.sys
device=a:\net\emm386.exe noems
dos=high,umb
files=30
device=a:\net\ifshlp.sys
lastdrive=z

[olicom]
[digital]
[n100]
[el90]
[ne2000]

Autoexec.bat

@echo off
a:\net\smartdrv.exe
prompt $p$g
pause
goto %CONFIG%

:OLICOM
copy a:\net\protocol.oli a:\net\protocol.ini
copy a:\net\system.oli a:\net\system.ini
GOTO NETWORK

IGITAL
copy a:\net\protocol.dc2 a:\net\protocol.ini
copy a:\net\system.dc2 a:\net\system.ini
GOTO NETWORK

:EL90
copy a:\net\protocol.3CO a:\net\protocol.ini
copy a:\net\system.3CO a:\net\system.ini
GOTO NETWORK

:NE2000
copy a:\net\protocol.ne2 a:\net\protocol.ini
copy a:\net\system.ne2 a:\net\system.ini
GOTO NETWORK

:N100
copy a:\net\protocol.n10 a:\net\protocol.ini
copy a:\net\system.n10 a:\net\system.ini

:NETWORK
path=a:\net
a:\net\net initialize
a:\net\netbind.com

etc
etc

It's a long time snce I've done this stuff but I think on real DOS you can use choice...don't think NT DOS supports it...
