windows scripting for a batch job
I have been doing unix scripting for quite awhile and there seems to be a wealth of information on it.
Now I am working on migrating an intel based application to a new server.
I need to modify some existing scripts, but am having trouble finding information on windows scripting, a forum similar to this to ask questions and books that might help me. Something that could relate unix to windows commands would be great. Does it exist?
Any suggestions?

Also. This script that I am modifying has wait statements in it. This is done so when it runs manually, it will run slower in the command window so I can see the commands as it runs. This script is moving from nt to win2000. The wait command doesnt work on win2000 although it works on the old nt box. I also tried sleep. Any ideas?

Tanks!
