Solve : Need help with a bat menu?

Answer»

I am new to this, and saw there are some batch menu's.

The thing was it just had a menu and no function to it.

I was hoping to see if someone can help me with a menu using a bat file.

Menu
1. Select A
2. Select B
3. Select C
4. Select D
5. EXIT

Then after clicking an option...It would bring up ANOTHER menu on what you'd like to do to it. ie: copy, zip, delete, etc...


Like I said, I am new to this and would appreciate anyones help.


   -Thx in advanceLike I always say:
"USE GOOGLE BEFORE POSTING!"
try this.

Code: [Select]echo off
cls
:menu
echo This is a Batch Menu
echo ==============
echo [1] Option One
echo [2] Option Two
echo [3] Option Three
echo.
set /p choice=1, 2, or 3?
if 'choice'=='1' goto one
if 'choice'=='2' goto two
if 'choice'=='3' goto three
goto menu

:one
<your code here>

:two
<your code here>

:three
<your code here>

that is a simple menu but you can add on more options.thank you for the template of the menu.
I was working off another template but was GIVING me issues.
For some reason, I cannot get the exit command to work with this one.

I'm still in the process of coding things, but do you know if I select an option that isn't there, it will return or make me choose a selection on the screen?

Thank you for your help.
