Hi Dave,

I may know why your external command is not executed.

Could you tell me where is located bbexternals.cmd file ?

The current path for BBWin when it is running is the bin directory so,
if bbexternals.cmd is not in the bbwin bin directory or in one of the
environment paths, then, it will fail.

If bbexternals.cmd is in ext directory, you should try this :

<load value='cmd.exe /C "D:\Program Files\BBWin\ext\bbexternals.cmd"'
timer="300" />

Let me know if it worked.

Regards,

Eteinen.
