Batch job
I would like to set up a batch job so I just need to click on it and it will do what I want it to do. I want to use the program DELPARTwhich deletes partitions but I am not sure how to set up a batch job to do it, Can someone please help me out in doing it. I would greatly appreciate it.

TIA

Create a file with the word "DELPART" in it, and save it as a .BAT file.

For that you need a macro recorder, like nMacroRec

That's not going to work in DOS.

He never said it has to work in DOS. And you can get nMacroRec to type in stuff to the command line. Or else there a program that'll probably work better, it requires simply scripting, and its called AutoIt. It'll take you all of 5mins to learn how to do exactly what you want to do, and it's free.

Do you mean true DOS mode achieved by restarting Windows in DOS mode, or the command prompt, but Start->Run-> "cmd.exe"
