Solve : batch file that "calls" .bat in different drive or directory?

Answer» HI guys, im a newbie here...

what is the code for a .bat that can "call" another .bat file which is in a different drive or directory? is this possible?

can anyone give an example please? thanksCode: [Select]call "path\to\file.bat"Quote from: Carbon Dudeoxide on July 29, 2009, 05:25:36 AM
Code: [Select]call "path\to\file.bat"

thanks, but the 2.bat that i called ran on the directory where my 1.bat file is on...how can i get 2.bat to run itself on its directory instead of 1.bat'sAdd: Code: [Select]cd Path\to\2.bat\
In 2.bat, that way it'll run in its stored directorythank @macdad-,

cd works when the .bat are on the same drive but different FOLDER/directories (ive tried it and it worked) but

when the .bat are on different drives i cannot switch from c:\ to d:\

(however i can switch drives when in dos window/console but when im using .bat i CANT switch)

please help. thanks in advance.

To switch folder AND drive USE CD with the /D switch

Code: [Select]CD /D "D:\Path To Folder\My Folder\test"Quote from: Salmon Trout on July 30, 2009, 12:22:31 AM
