hi folks
can someone tell me how i can open a text file at computer boot-up?
what i want to do is when my son starts up the computer i want him to see the message on the screen

Thanks.
 
Just put it in his startup folder C:\Documents and Settings\username\Start Menu\Programs\Startup, where username is your son's username. It will open in notepad (unless you've changed what's associated with .txt files).
 
thanks Wolluf.that was easy..

Thanks again
