Is there some way to isolate this script from the rest so it will work within my main batch program? i have tried putting ( ) ...

IT ALMOST WORKED PERFECTLY!!! Maybe it was my example that wasnt clear enough, the location worked PERFECTLY, however the files.txt will contain a list of hundreds of file names example 12422 1232456 12323 1231 it worked for the first line of 12422, but it did not work on the rest, i basically want ...

Im not sure if that will work exactly, what i have is this Xcopy C:\Example\123\0.jpg C:\Destination\123\0.jpg but i have hundreds of lines at a time to do this, and the starting point and folder names are constantly changing.

I would like to write a specific batch program on a flash drive that i will use repeatedly, but on different computers so the directorys will change. Therefor i would like to put a .txt file that i can paste the directory in so that when the batch file runs, it looks into that .txt file and uses wha...

no, the 2 images within each folder are exactly the same. i just need 2 copies of the same image, so it doesn't matter which one is 0 or which one is 1.

no i dont want to delete stepone, i was just wanted it to place the .txt list in one folder up. You did it for me before, but i just cant seem to figure out what you changed in the batch file to get it to do it. its not a big deal if it cant be done, i was just wondering.

I just want the .txt to be placed inC:\DaveCarbonesSchematicFinalizer\ProgramFiles\Pictures

C:\DaveCarbonesSchematicFinalizer\ProgramFiles\Pictures/stepone
