Autoexec.bat question

Hi, I have a laptop that I bought secondhand with win 98. I noticed that during the boot process the error :Bad command or file name occurs in response to the following line in autoexec.bat: -

call c:\MS\SMS\DATA\client.bat

Is this important, or would it matter if I delete the line in Autoexec.

Thanks,

Derek

I suspect that's left over from an old application. If the system runs normally now, deleting that line will have no effect on it's operation.
