Ah, sorry about that, I must have been half asleep... for some reason I
thought you were asking to list a directory, now I see you want to run
an arbitrary batch file. Sorry, my bad.
However, I think what I posted still works just the same... just alter
what's in test.vbs to execute, instead of "dir" it's your batch file...
I'm almost completely certain that will work exactly the same.

Hi Frank (from one Frank to another!),
I don't see any way to do that directly from Ant, but maybe someone else
does. Assuming there is no easy answer, here's one round-about way to
pull it off...
Ant script:
<project name="test" default="showdir">
<target name="showdir">
<exec executable="cmd.exe">
<arg line="/c test.vbs" />
</exec>
</target>
</project>
And test.vbs is:
dirToList = "c:\"
Set wshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WSCript.shell")
wshshell.run "cmd.exe /k dir " & dirToList, 1, false
Set wshshell = nothing
Change dirToList as appropriate, or passing it in as a command line
argument would probably be even better (and I'd bet more appropriate
since I'm guessing you want to determine what directory to list from the
Ant script?) and you should be all set.
