How to eliminate the extra parameter value to the bat

[somu_june]

Hi,

When I use the below script, I can pass the job parameter value successfully, but I'm getting the extra parameter value. In file I have 8 job names but I'm getting 9 and the extra one is the actual parameter that is passing to the script . While executing I'm passing dscompilebatch2.bat o9999 CPT_REB and I'm getting all the 8 job names from the file and passed to j parameter+ CPT_REB parameter value to j parameter which I don't want. I want the parameter values only from the file and not any additional parameters like positional parameter value to be passed.

Try it with these changes.

REM ====== OPEN THE FILE AND READ THE DATASTAGE JOBS THAT NEEDS TO BE COMPILE
for /f "tokens=*" %%a in (H:\Data\Dir\ECI_Return_File_Names.txt) do call :processline %%a

goto :eof <--- add this here

:processline




:eof <--- remove this from the bottom of the script. It is not needed.
