At work I usually open few Win application. Is there a way to create
some kind of script so the script will do it?
I tried to create a .bat file - but some applications cannot be open
from a DOS command (it looks that these applications have problem
accessing Access when started from DOS command).

Thanks,

Zalek

You mean when you first log on?
Just put them shortcuts to the items (same ones you use to open them now) in
your startup folder.

Create a batch file with the following command for each application you want
to run
wmic process call create <path><application>

example command

Wmic process call create "%windir%\notepad.exe"

Hope this helps.

After I logon I like to open about 20 applications - that means I need
to click 20 times.
Thanks for suggestion - I will try to put it in startup folder. But is
there a way to do it that I will have control when to start it?

Thanks,

Zalek
