I have a batch file, to extract files using 7zip, while extracting goes on, I want to play a file using wizmo.exe, but the problem is that, I run wizmo.exe and the code stops till the sound its finished then starts extracting ...
Here it is the code

@echo OFF
cls
mkdir data
mkdir data\res
move Data2.7z data\Data2.7z
move Data3.7z data\res\Data3.7z
move Data4.7z data\Data4.7z
copy 7za.exe data\7za.exe
copy 7za.exe data\res\7za.exe
copy chgcolor.exe data\chgcolor.exe
copy chgcolor.exe data\res\chgcolor.exe
cls
chgcolor 0a

Is this possible, to jump on next line while that exe is running, or any trick to do this ... ?

Try launching it with something like this:

start "wizmo" /separate wizmo.exe play=theme.wav

The best straight answer I've ever got.
It works like a charm!
Can you explain how this works /sepeate, to make batch continue executing other lines, a lot of peeps said to me that its impossible in batch !?
