execute command inside cmd application with one command

Question

I installed Linphone application http://www.linphone.org/technical-corner/linphone/documentation

I am running this application via cmd executing this command

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Linphone\bin\linphonec.exe"

then I make the call through this command

call [email protected]

I want to join the tow commands in one line so the cmd start the linphone then execute the call command inside the linphone

Output with & operator

C:\Users\Desktop\1>CD "C:\Program Files (x86)\Linphone\bin\"

C:\Program Files (x86)\Linphone\bin>linphonec.exe   & call [email protected]
WARNING: no real random source present!
Ready
Warning: video is disabled in linphonec, use -V or -C or -D to enable.
linphonec>

I used your code alone it was perfect but when i entered it in a loop in my bat file like this FOR /F "tokens=*" %%K IN ('echo call %%H%%Z@%%G|"C:\Program Files (x86)\Linphone\bin\linphonec.exe"') I got this error ` | was unexpected at this time ` what is this ?

Just the way batch syntax works - the cure is to insert a caret ^ before the pipe | so that batch knows that the pipe is part of the command to be executed. call %%H%%Z@%%G^|"C:\Progra... should work for you.
