Re: Printing .LIS file from DOS prompt

[Parijat Sahai <parijatsahai@HOTMAIL.COM>]

Thanks again, everyone. I'm overwhelmed!! So, in Win95 there's an
alternative to NET USE! And with reconnect at logon option!

FYI, I tried using the flag /PERSISTENT:YES with NET USE as one of you
had suggested (that's when I had wondered about the reconnect at logon
possibility and posted a query on it) but it seems this flag isn't
correct. I looked at the help for NET USE command, and there's no
mention of any flag which would ensure that the mapping is retained over
sessions. Although I believe there should be (in DOS) coz it's there in
win95!

Thanks again.

Parijat.
