Suppress the Windows command shell in a DOS program?
« on: March 08, 2025, 09:02:04 pm »
Hi,
I'm currently writing a database reporting tool, which gets executed regularly by using the Windows Task Scheduler. Is it possible to suppress the shell window coming up on program start?

In Task Scheduler, “General” tab, under the “Security options” section, select the “Run whether user is logged on or not” option.
