MS-DOS WINDOW AND COMMAND PROMPT


   To obtain a MS-DOS prompt type the word Cmd in the Search dialogue box next to the Start button and then click Return.
 
   If, as on previous versions of windows there is not a Search dialogue box, right click on the Start box on the bottom left corner of your Window's screen to bring up the Start menu. In the Start menu, left click on Run. Clicking on Run will bring up a dialogue box.
 
   In the dialogue box type the word Cmd and then click on the OK button. This action will bring up the MS-DOS window with the MS-DOS command prompt.
 
   You can type the window system and network commands into a MS-DOS prompt in Windows.
 
   To set the MS-DOS window size, right click on the title bar at the top ms-dos command window to give a drop down menu. This menu gives the options of setting the characteristics of the MS-DOS window including the font and window size and position. It also includes a Properties selection to choose the properties that can be set for window.
