silent install comes back to dos command prompt right away?

[#1]

Hi, experts

we are using installshield multiplatform 11.5
We use this for silent install "setupwin32.exe -silent -options record.txt", when i run this on a dos command, it returns to the dos command prompt right away; we are expecting it to wait until the installation finish or error out. How to resolve this?

this is the same in our installshield 11 universal.

thanks

Richard

It runs but in the background! Put the command in a .bat file and rerun.

Wish I knew that earlier. Running from a batch file did the trick.
