AUTO launching a pgm when computer boots

hello,

i've created a program that needs to be launched when the marchine finishes booting up. all the computers are networked and thus a win95 networking login screens appears each time the computer is booted. the reason for the network is because all the workstations access a nt database server.

how do i eliminate the signon screens and launch the application with network connectivity to the database server and network printers?

thanks in advance

review this article

does that what u need?

2 ways i know of:

1) Add an entry to this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run


2) add a shortcut to the startup folder in the start menu

Another way would be through Autoexec.bat.

Code:

---

Open "C:\Autoexec.bat" For Append As #1
Print #1, "PATH C:\mypath\myfile.exe"
Close #1

---

Just add a line to the bottom with PATH and your path.

while we're listing all the ways can you use the

Autorun.ini

file or the

Win.ini (maybe: [windows] run= (or) load=)

just curious
