Task scheduling in Win2000 platform

Please help! I wrote a DOS batch file that previously ran in Win95 platform. However, when I migrated to Win2000, it didn’t work. But, I can double-click to run it without any errors.

I scheduled it by using the task scheduler that came with Win2000. The batch file contains 2 parts. 1) some simple DOS commands 2) run a .exe file that generated by VB6.0 SP5.

The problem I faced were as below:-

1) The DOS environment doesn’t pop-up as I double-click the batch file. (But, the DOS commands can still be run in background.)

2) The .exe file doesn’t run.
