To complete the dialog box
Text to Insert
Enter the line to add to Autoexec.bat. If the line refers to an application file, use a
path (example: %MAINDIR%\Application\Application.exe). The PATH variable might
not be set when the command is executed, so always use a path.
Line Number
Enter the line number at which the new line should be inserted. Enter 0 (zero) to
append the command to the end of the file. The Search for Existing Text area in this
dialog box overrides the line number specified here. The line number applies only
when the text is not found or when you do not specify any text.
Search for Text
Enter the text to search for here. The installation scans Autoexec.bat looking for a
line that begins with, ends with, or contains the text, depending on what you set in
Match Criteria. The line is inserted at the first found match.
Comment Text
Enter text to insert at the beginning of the line that is found. Insert "REM " (with the
trailing space but without the quotation marks) to comment out the line, which lets
you replace an existing command with a new command while leaving the existing
command in place but inactive. If this is the case, set Insert Action to insert before
the existing line so that a subsequent installation finds and edits the active
command, not the commented line.
Insert Action
Select where to insert the new line in relation to the found line.
Match Criteria
Select how the found line matches the Search for Text.
Ignore White Space
Mark this to ignore spaces and tab characters.
Case Sensitive
Mark this to match case.
Make Backup File
Mark this to make a copy of Autoexec.bat before editing it.
This action edits the Config.sys file to add new commands. Insert commands at a
particular line number, or search the file for specific text and insert the new line before,
after, or in place of the existing line. The destination computer is restarted automatically
to force the new commands to take effect.
To complete the dialog box
Text to Insert
Enter the line to add to Config.sys. If the line refers to a file, use a path. Example:
%SYS%\Application.dll. %SYS% refers to the active system folder.
Line Number
Enter the line number at which the new line should be inserted. Enter 0 (zero) to
append the command to the end of the file. The Search for Existing Text area in this
dialog box overrides the line number specified here. The line number applies only
when the text is not found or when you do not specify any text.
