Re: Automating the generation of macros usable within other macros
Maybe we could ask Peter to put some of this on the main web page of the site. Or maybe we start a git repo.

How would we know what program or scheduler is doing a programmatic reboot?

Re: Extract missing record
Thank you Antonio, it works fine, but the problem is a pdf directory is a windows share slow and takes long time to read 1 milion of pdf, so I prefer before do a dir /b > file.txt and work on a file.txt As I said in my previous post, a base FOR command should be faster than reading a million line f...

Re: Extract missing record
yes you are right, the problem is that with millions of records it takes too long, so I decided to do a dir of the directory first. I'll try to work on it and post the solution, see if I can solve the problem With that big of a file you are going to see slow processing with the FOR /F command readi...

Re: Extract missing record
I really think you could attempt this one on your own. Just one solution would be to do the following. 1) FOR /F command to read the text file. 2) FOR /F command to split apart the base file name into multiple FOR variable tokens. 3) IF TOKEN 4 is not blank test if tokens 1_2_3.pdf is in the file. I...

Re: Execute a ffmpeg command for each mp3 file in a folder
I would think your code page would be set properly considering you are in the EU. Would be interesting to see what your code page is currently set to. You can type chcp at a command prompt to get that information. You can change the code page with the chcp command as well. You could try 65001.

Re: Batch File To Create Folder With Current Date
I get this feeling that it could be that our network drives are setup in a specific way so that the user that creates the folders may have certain permissions set to so they can edit or delete files within them and because, technically, your code is creating the folder instead of a user, that may b...

Re: FOR /R puzzler? (wildcarded folders only, e.g. A*)
If you want the specific directories only then code for that using the DIR command.
Code: Select all
FOR /F "delims=" %%G IN ('dir A* /AD /B') DO findstr /IC:"cat" "%%G\hat.txt"

Re: code in else statement not executing
Good to see I needed to change %errorlevel% to !errorlevel! towards the end. You wouldn't need to use delayed expansion for the errorlevel if you would just adopt the builtin errorlevel usage of the IF command. IF errorlevel 1 ( echo reader ID not found. ) else ( echo reader id found )

Re: Faster batch macros
Awesome. How I miss the batch file creativity. Been working as Unix admin the last year.
I can't remember if we had a running thread of all the Macros that have been created so far.

Re: Batch File To Change Date Format In Filename
It is simpler to just indicate findstr to match files that start in a space , followed by ##.##.##.pdf, so it just match " MM.DD.YY.pdf" and not " YYYY.MM.DD": dir /b /a-d *.pdf ^| findstr /i /e /R /C:" [0-9][0-9]\.[0-9][0-9]\.[0-9][0-9]\.pdf" Antonio I didn't want to assume all the files had a spa...

Re: Batch File To Change Date Format In Filename
Thank you very much. It's working great except I had some dates that were already formatted correctly and those got messed up. Is there a way you could add a feature that if the date is already in YYYY.MM.DD format, just leave it alone? If not, no worries. I will just make a note in the code to be ...
