Is this possible with a batch file?

[hendrikbez]

I have a bat file one for every day that runs, with system scheduler, so for each bat file I have to run system scheduler.
Is there a way that I can only run system scheduler one. but the bat file give the day.

Eg
Here is Day 1 (Busres 1(Mon).bat)

@echo off
net use K: \\000.00.0.00\osback
:: [To Connect(map) K: drive with ip]
cd\
echo off
K:
cd \
Xcopy . /D /I /F /E /Y D:\Backup\Busres\1Mon
net use K: /delete /y
:: [To disconnect the K: Drive]
exit


Here is day 2 Busres 2(Tue).bat

@echo off
net use K: \\000.00.0.00\osback
:: [To Connect(map) K: drive with ip]
cd\
echo off
K:
cd \
Xcopy . /D /I /F /E /Y D:\Backup\Busres\2Tue
net use K: /delete /y
:: [To disconnect the K: Drive]
exit

Can I make one batch file so that it can run on day 1,2,3,4,5,6 and 7.

Thank You

Yes it is possible but it is specific to your locale and regional settings

When I echo the %date% variable I get this:

Code: Select all

D:\>echo %date%
Tue 27/03/2012

so I can set a variable to the first token in the %date% variable

Code: Select all

@echo off
for /f "tokens=1" %%a in ("%date%") do set day=%%a
echo %day%

With some extra logic you can add a number from 1 to 7

Have a look at the DateToDOW function.
