Thanks again!

You always have a clever solution (short and efficient).

I checked your FOR solution. It is great. And as you mention I can add additional check for the current directory.

The idea with the 2>nul is also great.

Thanks for the help.

Thanks Steffen. Of course code could be shortened: disableX.exe 1 set errlev=%errorlevel% if "%errlev%"=="99" if "%username%"=="JOHN" disableX.exe if "%errlev%"=="99" if "%username%"=="JANE" disableX.exe if "%errlev%"=="99" if "%username%"=="MARY" disableX.exe if "%errlev%"=="99" if "%username%"=="J...

Thanks Steffen! I don't think there is a need for an assembler code. C would do - even if .exe is bigger in size. Maybe just adding an IF: if parameter1="1" then exit 99 So if I execute disableX.exe 1 if "%errorlevel%"=="99" echo DISABLEX found. set disablex_exists=0 disableX.exe 1 if "%errorlevel%"...

I find this disablex.exe very useful now. But I have a problem: I would like to check if disablex.exe is in the path so I would need something like disablex.exe /v /v version info or something - so running the .exe does not disable the 'X'. If disablex.exe is not in the path I get errorlevel=9009 bu...

I think at first that the 10000*y/10/2 part could be changed to 10000*y/5, but doing that cause errors in the angles 1077..4000

Could

10000*y/10/2

be written as

500*y ? Or it doesn't work as /5 did not?

(I am on a Phone and can't test this at the moment)

Here are two methods: string replacement or FOR. @echo off echo method 1 echo # should not be in the folder name or file name. Should be changed otherwise. set value1=W:\\Dune 2 - Remake\\dunedynasty.exe REG_SZ WINXPSP3 echo value1=%value1% set value2=%value1: REG_SZ =#% set value2=%value1: REG_DWOR...

Please use code tags. See set /? where Environment variable substitution has been enhanced as follows: %PATH:str1=str2% would expand the PATH environment variable, substituting each occurrence of "str1" in the expanded result with "str2". "str2" can be the empty string to effectively delete all occu...

You have two options:
- use escape sequences
- use space as a filler in your strings

I am not sure if I understand exactly what are you trying to do. But anyway: For example: you enter your data (for example with SET /P) and then write it to the output file. This means that you have your input file. Now you enter your 'key' (line number in this input file). Now depends what are you ...

Why don't you make an example of what your output file should look like? We are all trying to guess. I guess you are looking for a .txt file (you can call it a .csv file if you want): field1;field2;field3:field4;field5; field1;field2;field3:field4;field5; field1;field2;field3:field4;field5; field1;f...

Thanks! Looks great! I had to modify for /F "tokens=1-3 delims=/." %%a in ("%date%") do set /A "dd=1%%a%%100, mm=1%%b%%100, yyyy=%%c" to for /F "tokens=2-4 delims=/.

I would like to add a path (for example c:\test) to *system* variable (not user variable). Press WIN+R and type SystemPropertiesAdvanced and press ENTER. Click on 'environemnt variables'. At the top are user settings and at the bottom systemwide settings. And instead of adding a new path to the syst...
