Hi,

I am executing the script from command line like
> msched.exe c:\script.scp

After I press enter, prompt is returning and script is executing in background.

Can somone tell me, if there is a way by which I can make the msched.exe return to next prompt after the script executes.

Thanks
jiby

Try:

START /wait msched.exe c:\script.scp

Thanks it worked. But I tried to execute the same using TCL language. But due to some limitations, it is not able to perform because of the reason provided by them
"START is a Windows command console built-in, not an actual Windows command"

Is there any other way we can do using actual Windows command?

So try:

cmd /c start /WAIT /B msched.exe c:\script.scp
