    Thumbs down Need help with DOS BATCH File...

    I want to make a DOS BATCH file which asks for confirmation upon running.

    When I press Y or y it executes ipconfig /release command or just quit.

    Any idea.

    The problem basically is that CHOICE isn't included in Win2K onwards.
    So you'll want to find a replacement.

    Right. It doesn't work like this.

    ECHO ...IPCONFIG...
    ECHO -----------------
    ECHO 1.../ALL
    ECHO 2.../RELEASE
    ECHO 3.../RENEW
    ECHO X...Exit
    CHOICE "Please select one option..." /C:123X /N
    IF ERRORLEVEL 4 ipconfig /all
    IF NOT ERRORLEVEL 4 IF ERRORLEVEL 3 ipconfig /release
    IF NOT ERRORLEVEL 3 IF ERRORLEVEL 2 ipconfig /renew
    IF NOT ERRORLEVEL 2 IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO END_BAT
    :END_BAT

    Not working...
