Startup batch file

23
Hello, I have a batch file on my computer that opens up all the programs that I need to use at work. The batch file works great, except that when it opens the program windows, it they are kind of scattered around and I have to spend a minute or two re-arranging their locations and sizes. Is there a way, through either the batch file commands, or through windows (XP), to make them open up in the location and size that I want?
