Sorry if this is the wrong newsgroup. I have a specific question regarding ProComm and its command facilities. I am trying to perform some unattended file transfers using ProComm and its command language facility. Currently, I have ProComm starting up the command file from the MS-DOS prompt (via /F) and this works fine. (The command file logs into the remote machine, transfers the files, and then logs out). However, I would like ProComm to exit once it has completed executing commands from the command file. Currently, after it finishes with the command file, it drops me into "terminal mode". A simple AlT-X + Y kicks me out to the DOS prompt, but I would prefer to have this happen automatically. Nothing in the command language seems allow me to force an exit from ProComm. Is there a way to do this? Please respond directly as I don't read this group. Thanks Brian ----- field@cs.pitt.edu

In Procomm+, "bye" and/or "hangup" should do it. You did not say if you are using + though. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ronald L.
