Missed input parameter to be echoed / prompted

[swapan]

We have a batch script which takes user input parameters(5 parameters). If by mistake we forget to provide any particular parameter, we want that particular parameter to be echoed out / prompted in dos prompt.

If you missed a parameter, what do you expect to get if you will echo it out?
I suppose you get nothing for an empty parameter.

Might help if you actually posted the code you are using. Then someone could give you some ideas on adjusting your code.

Or use this:

Code: Select all

@echo off
if "%~5"=="" (
echo Try again with the right number of parameters, you numbskull!
pause
goto :EOF
)
echo rest of batch file goes here.
