With quotes, of course Wink

That reminds me of my brother's Mambo t-shirt. On the front there's only the mambo logo, and on the back there's a smiley doing a *huge* cheesy smile, and the text around him says "SMILE if you're a wanker" :rotfl:

Oops! :oops: Forgive me... I've been messing around with batch-files all day, and you don't have quotes with echo Tongue

Don't worry, you mess with batch files so you know more about them than me Smile

Yeah but then you 'lose' the patience threshold test and never find out what your score is Wink
