you can't unfortunetly, at this moment the portableapps platform only searches for .exe files in the portableapps folder in your flash drive.

this might work...
you can use the windows program "iexpress.exe" (type it in at the run dialog box) to convert exe to bat. anyway,
click "Create new SED file"
select "Extract files and give an installation command"
make the title anything you want (it won't be displayed)
select "no prompt", "don not display a license"
give it the .bat file you're talking about
select the .bat file for install program
select "Default"
and "no message"
there you go. the PA menu will display a name like "Windows Install" to get over this, rename it.
basicially, all it does is extract the .bat file into a temporary directory and then runs it.
hope this helps
