    Dos Command Window
    Hello Friends,
    I have scheduled a batch file to start of in the night. I want to see the DOS window to remain open and not close after execution. I want this this to check the next morning if all the actions went OK.
    Is there any command that can keep the DOS screen open till I close.

    Thanks
