Convert bat to exe with icon using batch

[jamesfui]

hi dostips batch scripters expert,
is it possible to convert done.bat to done.exe add in icon?
do batch scripts work on this instead of using third party programs??
and how do we do that???
thanks in advance!!

Hi Jamesfui,

In my few years of experience with batch file creation, I have been converting batches to executables, and I use a very good little program called "BAT2EXE". I find it really useful. I can add icons, Make the main executable and include other files to strap to it, and add 'additional information (things such as version and copyrights)'.

I have not, though, heard of a batch that will do this.

Sorry If this doesn't answer your question, and if so good luck and I hope you do get the one you are looking for.

thanks! the bat2exe is good, very user friendly!
sadly bat not possible to do it with internal commands..!!

I'm sorry- what do you mean by internal commands?

If you mean through command line, you can get BAT2EXE command line version...

Will keep an eye on this string.
