Hi NTYeader, it's nice that your code works finally. Your minor problem is not a problem. setlocal ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION for /l %%d in (1,1,30) do ( REM ensures two digits if %%d lss 10 ( set dd=0%%d ) else ( set dd=%%d ) echo dd=!dd! ) Works fine. Or you can solve i...

Hi tanoloco, similiar to the Problem from ntyReader, but a bit easier, because of the fixed count of one line removing from the tail and the head. @ECHO off setlocal ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION set /a show=0 for /F "tokens=* skip=1" %%r in (test.txt) do ( if !show!==1 echo !saveLine...

Hi osramos, the findstr seems to be the right way. But then you have to use the output and split it with the FOR /F "tokens=..." command. Somthing like FOR /F "tokens=7" %%a in ('findstr "attempted" myFile.tmp') do set att=%%a FOR /F "tokens=7" %%c in ...

Hi NTY, so I try to find a hint. I build my own tmp.csv remark 1 remark 2 remark ... remark N City,Visits Hamburg,1 Berlin,8 Bochum,1000 This is the end, but should not used For /F %%A in ('Find /V /C "City,Visits" tmp.csv') Do set FR=%%A First, I tried "Find /V /C" and i...

Hi Harlod, simple if you use only one argument like the password. Then you can use %* for all the input. But if you use two arguments, like user and pwd, then it becomes complicated. The first argument is obviously %1, but the SHIFT command fail for %*. %* reflects always all arguments, not modified...

Hi Cander, hmm. The idea here was to get the connect1's variable value "1243" into the variable value? That's my intention. What does the triple %%% do? Why the call? The triple %%%, read it as (%%)%str%(%%), the rule is: %% will "expand" to a single % without any other meaning, ...

Hi jpeg, look at the help of FOR (for /?), there is the substitution explained. setlocal set str=c:\parentdir\childdir\filename.ext call :split %str% goto :eof :split echo drive=%~d1 path=%~p1 name=%~n1 ext=%~x1 goto :eof Results to drive=c: path=\parentdir\childdir\ name=filename ext=.ext jeb

Hi Cander,

try this for indirect variable access

Hi, you got it, but you missed some few characters. I tested this and it seems to works. setlocal enabledelayedexpansion for /F "tokens=*" %%c in ('dir *.bmp /a-d /ogn /b /s') do ( set abspath=%%~fc call set "relpath=%%abspath:%cd%\=%%" rem echo abs=!abspath! rel=!rel...

Hi JubaJuba, look at :MakeRelative from the Function Library, use it with an absolute path to your file and it should work. for /F "tokens=*" %%c in ('dir *.jpg;*.bmp /a-d /ogn /b') do ( set filename=%%~fc call :MakeRelative filename echo ^<img^>!filename!^<^/img^> >> list.xml ...

Hi NYTReader123, try to use the FOR statement to extract single lines from the file. for /f "tokens=*" %%a in (tmp.csv) do @echo %%a But first you have to simple count the number of lines (also with the FOR), then it should be simple. Then you start a second FOR-run and append your...

Hi lstewart, try this setlocal set str=abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvxyz call :indexOf result "%str%" "e" echo %result% goto :eof :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :indexOf <resultVar> <str> <find> SETLOCAL set "str=%~2" call set "part=%%str:%~3=&rem...

Hi BatchFileCommand,

do you get an error message?

Try to quote it, there could be spaces in the path to the Desktop



Hope it helps

Hi Jeff, I suppose there is no simple sulotion for __LINE__, but I use a pseudo line function for error messages like "Error in line 123: Invalid parameter". @echo off setlocal enableextensions rem setlocal enabledelayedexpansion if "%~1"=="" ( call :echoLine "...
