codemonkey, This little batch should get you the list of directories and show them as a menu with numbers in front of each directory name. The user can then chose a number. The number is resolved to the directory name and shown on the screen. Not that the ftp script is embedded into the batch script...

tom4tp, you could try the (new) :getIPConfig function. It returns an array of all ipconfig output, from there you can access what you need. @echo off call:getIPConfig arr echo.%arr[1].IPAddress% echo.%arr[2].IPAddress% echo.%arr[3].IPAddress% goto:eof rem copy :getIPConfig function from http://www.d...

JerzyPiotr, I suspect the :jdate function doesn't work correctly for systems with PL as system locale. The :jdate function uses the date command to retrieve the year, month and day. On a US system the date function output looks like this: C:\>date The current date is: Sat 11/14/2009 Enter the new da...

dosnovice, Here is a batch with embedded FTP script that gets a file with yesterday's time stamp. @ECHO OFF call:jdate JD set /a JD-=1 call:jdate2date JD YYYY MM DD call:ExtractSimple :StartFtp >"%temp%\%~n0.ftp" notepad "%temp%\%~n0.ftp" rem ftp -i -s:"%temp%\%~n0.ftp"...

meangean,

This is not a straight answer but hope it helps.

From command line run:
rundll32 printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /?

There are tons of options. If you figured it out post the answer here.

dosnovice You can use teh julan days conversion to get the YYYY MM DD from yesterday: @ECHO OFF call:jdate JD set /a JD-=1 call:jdate2date JD YYYY MM DD echo.D%YYYY%%MM%%DD%*.csv GOTO:EOF rem Functions go below here rem copy :jdate from m rem copy :jdate2date from m Output: D20091110*.csv DosItHelp?

There is something fishy going on with the output of fsutil, see earlier post for details: http://www.dostips.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=230 Here is a function to choose a drive: @echo off call:DriveChoice dr echo.Your choice: '%dr%' goto:eof :DriveChoice drive SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION set /a ...

LOL

In other words:
%~f0 - resolves to the full name of the currently executing batch file.

bex,

Remove the spaces behind the variables during value assignment. For example:
set var=nospace
set var =space
echo.%var%
echo.%var %
The command interpreter sees two different variables and echoes:
nospace
space

avery_larry,

Good thinking!
The functions :jdate and :date2jdate have been corrected to support 2 digit years by adding 2000.
Give it a try and let me know of the :jdate function now works for you.

Alternatively use Julian days modulo seven to look up a string like this: @Echo Off call:jdate JD set /a d=1+(JD%%7) for /f "tokens=%d%" %%A in ("MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY SATURDAY SUNDAY") do echo.%%A GOTO:EOF ::------------------------------------...

onionfx, You should name yourself hero not onion. The corrected :ftime function has been uploaded. I also fixed the function comment, which was bogus, and made changes to improve the performance when default 'last file write' time is used, by preventing calls to 'dir' and 'findstr' altogether. Many ...
