these are my files
armor.txt
install.txt
install.bat
mpq2k-102
patch_d2.mpq
storm.dll
impqapi.dll
staredit.exe
install.txt is as follows
O patch_d2.mpq
a armor.txt d\g\e\armor.txt
a armor.bin d\g\e\armor.bin
a p-string.tbl d\l\lng\eng\p-string.tbl
C patch_d2.mpq
install.bat is as follows
mpq2k s install.txt
ok all of that is in a folder by itself (D:modding), and when i click in the install.bat it opens up msdos, then it says "D:\modding>mpq2k s install.txt",then bad command or file name, and closes, not putting files back into the patch. I also get a msdos icon in folder, when I open it it says the same thing,"D:\modding>mpq2k s install.txt", bad command or file name!! What am I doing wrong? Plz help if you can. Another question do I need patchstring.tbl if Im just editing and not creating?

Do you have MPQ2K, Storm.dll, StarEdit and Impqapi.dll in that mod folder as well?

"a armor.txt d\g\e\armor.txt
a armor.bin d\g\e\armor.bin
a p-string.tbl d\l\lng\eng\p-string.tbl"

You can't use short forms like this. You need to write it like:

A armor.txt data\global\excel\armor.txt
A armor.bin data\global\excel\armor.bin
A patchstring.tbl data\local\LNG\ENG\patchstring.tbl
