Thanks Antonio.
I don't think this will work because the files on the new server are already in folders. Unless the for is recursive and will look into the folders. That's why I was using dir /b/s. If I'm missing something, please let me know.
Thanks!

Re: Need help synchronizing files between servers.
The file names are all unique. So, are we talking about something like this? @echo off setlocal set "old=z:\" set "new=d:\inetpub\ftproot\XMLs" for /f "delims=" %%a in ('dir /b z:\*.xml') do ( for /f "delims=" %%b in ('dir /b/s %new%\*.xml') do ( if not %%a EQ...

Re: Need help synchronizing files between servers.
What do you want to do in the single folder now? It's going to have different files inside it I assume. Do you want to organise the single folder of files on the primary system? Yes, the single folder will have more files in it now. I don't want to do anything in the single folder but copy all of t...

Organizing XML files into year month format
I need to re-organize close to a million xml files that are all in the same directory so they are in year/month folders. I have written the following code to do that. The problem I'm having is how long it is taking. I ran the script and it took over an hour just to output how many files are in the d...

Re: Read from a list of hosts instead of querying whole doma
If you're running PsLoggedOn or any of the sysinternal tools for the first time on a machine, you will get the EULA but you won't see it when scripting. There is a switch /accepteula that takes care of that little problem. Could be the cause of your issue.

Re: Can someone smarter than me check this code?
I haven't read the entire script but I have a suggestion. Make a folder in your temp directory, copy a section of your files there and run the script. No harm, No foul. If it works, great. If not, well, you know you need to fix it. Also, Backup your data! external HD's are cheap. get one.

Re: Interactive Menu with user Input
Open up a cmd prompt and type set /? pay particular attention to the /p switch. This allows your script to take input while it's running.

Re: Setting up scripting environment
Nice Squashman. Now comes the tough part. It isn't picking up the settings that I've already set for any CMD window because the title isn't cmd.exe. I can get it close using MODE like so: @echo off start "" cmd.exe /K "title Batch Folder & cd /d F:\Scripts\batch & color 0A &am...

Setting up scripting environment
Every day, I come in to work and open up 2 cmd prompts. I change the titles and set each one to a specific folder. I've been trying to write the script to do this so I can just double click a file and have it done for me. I haven't figured it out yet. Something like: @echo off cmd.exe /K title test1...

Re: Automatically Copy From Drive to Year-Month-Day Folder
You can do the insertion detection using WMIC or FSUTIL but I don't think either of them are available until Winxp. Also, where do you get those floppy disks? I thought they stopped making them a few years ago. Show an example of the file names for the second part. I recently wrote a script that doe...
