Liam Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 Ok guys without going into things to much... Recently i have introduced a terminal server Environment using mandatory profiles. We use a third party piece of software to run outlook signatures. Unfortunatley until the profile has been created by the user clicking outlook it cannot assign the signature. I need a simple batch file to run at logon that will simply run outlook from the c:\ then pause for 5 seconds then run the exe for exclaimer. When i do this is runs outlook find but then freezed on the dos window until i click exit in outlook. What am i doing wrong. my script is as follows. "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\OUTLOOK.EXE" PING 1.1.1.1 -n 1 -w 5000 >NUL "\\rbhs.local\netlogon\exsync.exe" If i use START then it will not work as the user does not have access to the cmd line. Please help
