sorry if the top is a little messed up thats just because i copied and pasted

Code: 
@echo off
:menu
cls
echo    IIIIIIIIIII    MMMMM       AAAAA              H    H    AAAAA  CCCCC      K      K    E EEE   RRRR            
echo          | |         M    M   M        A   A    A              HHH    A   A    A  C                 K K         E  E        R   R

pipes dont agree directly after echos

It was erroring out at line 5 (first pipe), took that out and then it errored elsewhere. I took out your entire "Title" (lines 4 through 13) and the batch file paused at a option like you wanted.

just by browsing over your batch file quickly, you may want to download crimson editor .. it's free and handy. Also, launch a shell first rather than placing your file name in the run prompt... that way it wont close upon exit, unless you call "exit"

IMO Creating useful batch files takes time... worry about the "meat and potatoes" of what you want to do first rather than waste time on a "title screen". Menus are great, just all the stuff above it... lol

EDIT: Another tip... using a /I switch right after "If" allows you to rule out case sensitivity...
So:

Code: 
if %network%==F goto syntaxnetstat
if %network%==f goto syntaxnetstat

becomes

Code: 
if /I %network%==F goto syntaxnetstat

It covers lower and upper cases
 
No no no... of course you dont sound rude... I totally understand.

Ok, the 5th line down had two pipes "|" <<< these things. Just remove those two first...

Then lines 9, 10, 11 and 12 had a pipe "|" right after the "echo" command. Remove those four. Then resave it and you are good to go.

As for opening a shell, I meant... Start > Run > type "cmd" and hit enter. Navigate to where your file is and then launch it from there.
 
wait one more thing is there any way i can code it so that it will open when i click the file?
 
I meant that, while you were "troubleshooting" you could open a shell prompt and run it from there. That way you could see errors without it closing out on you.

The way you are doing it is fine, it will be able ot be doubleclicked to run.
 
Thank you i figured out the shell thingy
so when i do this next thing (pressing enter at the option menu)
it exits out
when i went into the shell it says ipbasic not expected at this time
its sapose to say invalid choice or whatever

again sorry if the top and the bottom is messed up

heres the code
