    In refrence to your post here :
    http://www.windowsbbs.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=14953 the steps are basically the same.


    When using DOS an asterisk '*' is used as a wild card to help the manipulation of multiple files.


    format A: /Q /V:World2disk

    You will get an error, Microsoft does not support the erasing or formating of CDs in DOS, possibly 3rd party utilities will allow this but at present you will need to do it from windows.

    I'm not quite sure what you mean here... its possible to turn c:\ into something totally different, but I doubt thats what you want. :-|

    dir /A:R

    /A = attributes
    :R = attribute Read-Only


    CD\ will return you to the current drive

    deltree energy

    yes when located A:\, copy c:world2.txt should work :D

    the slowest way would be to cd into the sub directory on the d drive and then dir *.rtf, the fastest way from the root of any drive would be to type dir D:\world2\*.rtf



    my own question... isn't this in the XP section ? ;)
    ALSO this looks suspiciously like an educational assessment/exercise ... I hope its not :eek:

    *eyes them suspiciously*
    hope that helps :)
