What does mean Process.ExitCod e = 255 ?

[SMichal]

Hi, I'm starting from my application simple bat data...test.bat .
This file (test.bat) should start another aplication app.exe.

I'm starting the test.bat from my application with Start() method of Process
class.
With proc.WaitForExi t I'm waiting for end of the process and I must check
the
return code of process that I've started...this job does proc.ExitCode.

I'm alway dealing with returnCode = 255 but I'm pretty sure that the
application (which I've started) returns only this codes 0, 1 , 2, 3

So why do I get always the 255 retun code ?
