      >1. When the uses chooses to run Ghost directly (without selecting a model) what gets executed >where and with what parameters if any

      It gets run from the folder "Ghost" with the following command/switches "ghost.exe -fni"

      The ghost executable resides in "Z:\Ghost" (Z: drive is mapped using Net Use command and is mapped to "\\swinstall1\Images". The Ghost folder is in the "Images" folder.

      >2. when the user goes to the dos prompt. Do you expect to leave the program to simply go to the >dos prompt? or do you want them to type exit at the dos prompt to go back to the selection menu? >both are possible of course, just need to know which way to go :-).

      Yes, leave the program, menus, etc and just drop straight to a DOS prompt (after the machine has booted onto the network, of course).

      >3. when the user selects a given model number i need to pass the path to that model's gho file to >another .bat file. I want to basically call the batch file from the QB program itself and then >pass it that variable...are you ok with that?

      That's exactly what I want :-)
