batch programming help needed

[mr_anderson]

Hi
i want to write a batch program that pings a speific IP each 2 minutes
for example let the site be yahoo.com with its IP address of 87.248 .113.14 i want to write a batch program (.bat) file to ping that IP each 2 minutes, any ideas please or any one who knows how to make delay of 1 minute using batch commands.
the structure of the programm would be:
1- ping ( ping 87.248.113.14)
2- wait for 1 minute ( i donot know how to make it)
3- goto begining ( i donot know how to make it )
thank you

did you check the ping command help?. Read the help of ping for -n and -w option.

Added after 9 minutes:

Check if this helps...

**broken link removed**

check the Fixed-time delays section

thank u for the info.
i used to the ping command in the form
ping 1.0.0.0 -w 60000 -t

the 1.0.0.0 will report a request timed out after 60000 milli-seconds which equals to 60 seconds and by varying the 60000 to any other number i have controlled the delay .
thank u
