You can only assign a 'work directory' to shortcuts, not to the actual files. That's not a limitation of TLB, but it's just how Windows works. If you're not convinced, open your batch-folder in explorer and try to change the work directory of any of the batch files... indeed: impossible Wink

The solution is to create a directory that contains shortcuts to your batch-files, maybe one level deeper... And then create a virtual folder pointing to that directory...

Or you could add one line to your batch files so they would change to their work directory themselves, but that's not very pretty :p
Windows 7, IE 9.0, Shell 6.0.6000.16386, TLB 4.2.3 beta
