@echo off
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
xcopy /D /U /Y "anyfolder\batch name as folder name\anyfolder\*" "anyfolder\spi-batch name as folder name\anyfolder\"
xcopy /E "anyfolder\batch name as folder name\anyfolder\" "anyfolder\spi-batch name as folder name\anyfolder\"
xcopy /D /U /Y "anyfolder\batch name as folder name\anyfolder\*" "anyfolder\spi-batch name as folder name\anyfolder\"
echo Finished
pause

in need specific multiple extensions and batch file name as the folder name in both source and destination.

Code: Select all

@echo %0

P.S. Use code tags, please.

"not working" is not a helpful response. What isn't working? What message do you receive when you issue the commands Saso suggested?

@echo %0

P.S. Use code tags, please.
%0 returns the entirety of what was typed when the script was called. Presumably they're looking for %~n0.

What happens if you execute your .bat file? (of course remove BOLD tags)

Code: Select all

@echo off
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
for %%A in (*.bat) do (
   
   for /f "delims=" %%B in ("%%A") do set fname=%%~nB
   for /f "delims=" %%C in ("%%A") do set fextn=%%~xC
   for /f "tokens=1* delims=_" %%D in ("!fname!") do set folname=%%D
   echo folder name !folname!

echo.
ECHO xcopy /Y "E:\folder1\folder2\!folname!\folder3\" "G:\folder1\folder2\spi-!folname!\folder3\"
ECHO xcopy /E /Y "E:\folder1\folder2\!folname!\folder3\" "G:\folder1\folder2\spi-!folname!\folder3\"
ECHO xcopy /Y "E:\folder1\folder2\!folname!\folder3\" "G:\folder1\folder2\spi-!folname!\"
)
echo Finished
pause
Note I added a dot after the ECHO command.
your notes were not REMed so that would cause problems. Also I added two back slashes in the first two XCOPY commands.

Do you see the correct command syntax If you run this code? Can you run it in a test enironemnt?

Let me give you this link again: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=6108

We are all wasting our time because your original post does not (and additional posts) provide enough information. You would probably already have a solution if your original post had all the information required:

You wanted to know

"1. batch file name as folder name"

and I gave you the answer to use %0. And then it turns out that you want to process the list of all the *.bat files in the [current] directory. And for that you need something else.
need copy with extension (e.g., *.jpg; *.tiff; *.eps) how to include this
Maybe you could provide extensions in a list - never tried that (I don't use XCOPY) - so you could duplicate XCOPY commands for this. In short something like this:

Code: Select all

REM modify your XCOPY command of course
XCOPY *.jpg  outfolder\
XCOPY *.tiff outfolder\
XCOPY *.eps  outfolder\
