'cd' means change directory. cm9697.exe is not a directory but the executable file of your game. That's why you get this error.
You should remove the last 'cd' command to execute the program itself instead of trying to handle it as a directory.

Note that this is the forums for official DOSBox, not Droid builds. You should ask the people where you got it.

No worries. All these Droid builds make changes to vanilla DOSBox which makes it really difficult for the authors of vanilla DOSBox to support it. If you like, you can get DOSBox running on a PC or Mac then try working out any quirks for your mobile device after. It might be a good way to start learning about DOSBox and DOS gaming with solid access to help and information.

I'll do that. Thank you.
