    Just try typing:

    md tempfile
    If you're happy and you know it......it's your meds.

    Extended error nnn means that the error couldn't be found between the internal error messages in Command.com OR that Command.com couldn't be found.

    Command /c MD xxx is unnecessary but correct syntax.

    Thank you Ate, the reason I'm using command.com is because I'm writing a program in Clarion that runs a few dos commands. It is for a client who uses a citrix server and I think it is an error with citrix more than it is with dos. I think your answer will help out a lot....

    Thanks,

    Dan

    I would create a batch file to MD TEMPFILE. Because of the space between the MD and TEMPFILE, it may be regarded as 2 seperate actions. Thus Extended.
