Guys/Gals,

I just downloaded a bunch of Office XP updates.

See my earlier post here:

http://www.autopatcher.com/forums/index.ph...amp;p=5015&

What I now need is a DOS Batch File to install all of the updates

automatically.

I will put them in after I do the SP3 install so my Office XP will then be fully protected.

Thanks in advance for any help you can be.

when i did my own updater, in the early days of win95, i did it with an .bat file. at that time, i had to learn each command-line by myself. but you have more luck and you already have it, in each autopatcher apm module. so, all that you have to do is take the exact order for each update (that is done by date and the .apm modules have it) and add each command-line into that .bat file, in chronological order. but you may have an big issue: an .bat file at win98 will run all the updates at once. so, some updates may not install due that fact. still, you can do that .bat file with an pause after each line. this will work, but you will have some trouble to lunch each one, because you will have to be near by to resume the .bat file after each update
