Im super noob at this stuff but id just like to know whats the simplest way to create a program or file which when i execute will run 2 different programs.
Say i want to run winamp and firefox, i just want a program that when i execute will run these 2 at once. See im too lazy to double click on file then the other :p its much cooler this way too.
Cheers

Maybe you could create a .bat file which spawns the two programs one after the other?

ive tried it but i dont think im doing it right. And i think it only allows one executable open at a time.
If someone could help refine the coding it would be much appreciated
Heres the code...so far:
@echo off
cd "c:\Program Files\WC3Banlist\"
WC3Banlist.EXE
cd "c:\Program Files\Warcraft III\"
PIGON_LOADER.EXE
exit
Cheers

The "start" keyword is the answer to your problem. That should spawn two processes at the same time.
