I have been attempting to use the exec in a PHP script as follows
exec("c:\program files\utils\some.bat");
without any success.
The batch file runs a macro applications which carries out a series of tasks before exiting and returning control to the batch file and then hopefully to the PHP script.
A search of this and other sites has not provided a working solution. Any help most appreciated

Try using DOS-style short file names:
exec("c:\progra~1\utils\some.bat");

Try new FreshView 0.2!
There are only two stupid questions: the one you don't ask, and the one you ask more than once ;-)
