i don't know how to issue a dos command from a c program. i tried system function but it is not working in my program so please tell me if any other way is there to issue the dos command..

Since I already responded to your other thread, I'll try to make this brief.

As pointed out by Dave in one of your previous threads, the problem is likely an incompatibility between your old Borland compiler and your (much newer) 32-bit WinXP system.

There are many free, up-to-date compilers out there, like GNU gcc. Even Miscrosoft's compiler is available for free!

Why not grab one and upgrade. Besides a newer, standards-compliant compiler might help you write more portable code by discouraging non-standard code.

Borland works fine using the system() command. That is not the problem.

I too remember a couple threads you started, jaininaveen, which should have fully answered your question. If not, state your problem. Exactly. As Guideline #2 states.
