Thinstall SBmerge, keep it simple

Normally I tell people to open a command prompt and browse to the project files folder. Next step is to start sbmerge.exe with a parameter print or apply. However you have to type a lot of text within the command prompt before the sandbox is really merged with the project files.
Today I created the command file below and copied that to every project files folder. Now, when I double-click te icon (command file) the sandbox automatically merged with the project files and the Thinstalled executable will be generated immediately.
You only have to copy the following code into a command file and use it;
"c:\program files\thinstall.vs\sbmerge.exe" apply
build.bat
