Hello all,

I have created a very simple batch file this evening to open three Internet Explorer webpages simultaneously. The code from this batch file is as follows, with the numbers representing different websites.



I am looking for one of the websites in the batch file to actually launch on my second monitor. I have UltraMon, which means I can move the windows between monitors with a single click, but it would just finish off the script if it happened automatically.

My initial thoughts were to set Internet Explorer's window location using a .reg file, open one of the sites, and change it back using another .reg file before launching the other two sites. I hit a brick wall with this because the window location is stored in a complicated binary format, which I cannot understand.

Is there a simple way of doing this, please?

Thanks,

Peter.

You need to make a vbs file with the following code in then launch that from the batch file



Scripts are here

That's brilliant, thanks, saspro. I'll give that a go later in the week and let you know how I get on!

Thanks again,

Peter.

Maybe I'm being a bit thick here, but I can't get it to work, sorry.

I have created two files, one called Test.bat and another called Test.vbs. The code for each file is below.



When I run the batch file, I receive the error below.



Am I missing something here?

Thanks,

Peter.

You need to adjust the

"start C:\Test.vbs"

to include the command line parameters you need.

E.g.

start C:\Test.vbs iexplore 2

or

start C:\Test.vbs iexplore http://www.test.com 2

Look at the text in the dialog box.
