Batch code is unable to interact with graphical interfaces. So you cannot open menus or push buttons. For things like that choose another language like AutoIt and others.

You can, however, open a file in notepad. Steffen

I've also never heard of any modern text editor that doesn't let you press CTRL+N to create a new file.

NO! You were just told that batch files cannot interact with graphical user interfaces.

Seems you didn't understand my clear statement. You can NOT move the mouse to a certain window/control/tab/menu item/... and click it using Batch. Batch can NOT interact with graphical interfaces. Only with command line interfaces.

There is this post that discusses how to use wscript send keys for this and wrap it in a batch script:

viewtopic.php?t=4758

This uses another scripting language. And not even VBS or JS will be able to emulate mouse clicks. You could, however, remote control MS Office applications using VBA in a VBScript. This would be rather off topic in this forum, and I'm only telling about it because the OP mentioned Excel as an example (while they actually asked about an unspecified "specific program" and "open a new window of something" where VBA is most likely no option anymore).

I suggest you to carefully review SendMessage.exe: Access to advanced Windows features thread and check if such an auxiliary program can help you to solve your problem...

If the goal is to open Notepad and push data into it in a scriptable way, you may try using my 2note.exe program.
To use it, send the text that you want to see in Notepad through a pipe.
For example: or 2note.exe is part of my System Tools Library.
