Re: Command Redirection to Output File.

%state% == alive The spaces are breaking your code. Batch takes spaces as literal values, so you're checking to see if the value of %state% with a space on the end is equal to a space followed by the word "alive," which it can never be. Remove the spaces and wrap both values in some chara...

Re: Help Needed in Text File

If you get no output from that command, then there are no files that contain the word "Core"

Re: Process files one by one

If you like this, you should wait until somebody like Squashman, Aacini, or dbenham comes in here and corrects my code Is the 4-at-a-time thing for speed issues or do the programs have a limit to how many instances can be run at a time? Because this will run truepng on all files, wait for all instan...

Re: Process files one by one

Here is fine. For some reason I was under the impression that the script would wait for the ping to finish, but I didn't take into account that one process that was running long could still be active (when I tested with pings of varying lengths, my testing had the long ping after the short ping, so ...

Re: mailsend script for FreeFileSync

You can extract the first line of a file to a variable like this: set /p first_line=<"C:\FFS\LastSyncs.log" And from there, you can just search through that string. echo %first_line%|findstr /i "successfully" >nul && set subject=[Success] Synchronization completed success...

Re: mailsend script for FreeFileSync

Delete the line

Code: Select all

for /f "delims=" %%x in ('dir "C:\FFS\Logs\" /od /b') do set recent=%%x


Change every instance of "C:\FFS\Logs\%recent%" to "C:\FFS\LastSync.log"

Re: Help me in creating a batch

You want an excel vba macro. Alternatively, if these are xlsx files and you have archival software (WinZip, WinRAR, 7-Zip, etc) installed, they're technically archive files with XML inside of folders. But you really, really, really don't want to create xlsx files that way. It's just a giant headache...
