We are trying to convert a DOS batch file to an exe file. &nbsp;The batch file is the following:<br />
<br />
start &quot;c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore &lt;internal URL&gt;&quot;<br />
<br />
By clicking on the batch file it opens immediately to a specific internal IE page. &nbsp;However, we need to make it into an exe and get that working.<br />
<br />
We have tried these tools, but they haven't done the job:<br />
bat2com<br />
turbobat<br />
bat2exe15<br />
<br />
We are looking for a freeware tool that will do the job.<br />
<br />
Thanks for your help,<br />
