Don't use batch files very much but one I find useful is for creating a list of files in a directory.
Just copy the text below into Notepad and save as Filelist.bat

dir /a /-p /o:gen >filelist.txt

When you run it from a folder it will create a Filelist.txt file,in the same folder, that lists all the files in that folder.Useful when you are too lazy to type all the files out yourself.

I think you can just use the "Call" command in your batch file.
The batch file should delay execution until the call command finishes.

Call myprogram.exe
Call mysecondprogram.exe

Haven't done much batch coding lately *Smile
