Is the desired result that the user types in a drawing number in a textbox (the first step in your list of processes) and then views the final pdf immediately (the last step)?

>After a user types a drawing number in a text box the following needs to take place:
>Verify the Drawing Revision(SPT to AS400 database)
>
>Find the Drawing in the proper release folder
>
>Copy Drawing Files to Temporary Folder
>
>Run a batch file that takes each Drawing file Opens it up in it's native application and then through script plots the Drawing out to a postscript file.
>
>Automate Acrobat Distiller to take the .ps files and make them .pdf files.
>
>Erase .bak, .ps, and .log Files
>
>Automate Acrobat to take all the pdf files and make them one pdf file.
>
>I can get all these pieces to work when involked one at a time. How do I get these steps to work in a liner fashion without overrunnig each other.
