What result do you get?
What is the name of the batch file? (Example: "batch file.cmd".)
How do you call it? (Per doubleclick or do you use the cmd shell; in last case please with the full copy pasted screen.)

Or might i misunderstand what you are writing, and you only want to know a way to do output in a batch file?

Sidenote: Please use [code]sample code[/code] tags:

Code: Select all

I guess you want to do something like that:

Code: Select all

@echo off
:: FINDSTR is searching for (at least) four spaces at the beginning of the line in this script file. The output will be redirected to "example.txt".
findstr /bc:"    " "%~f0" >"example.txt"

:: EXIT /B quits the batch execution. Following lines were never seen by the command interpreter.
exit /b

    Hello
      How r u
