Here is the batch file...


@echo off
dir %1 | find "bytes free" > c:\freespace.txt
echo On|set /p =%date% >> c:\time.txt
echo at| time /t >> c:\time.txt
Echo The %1 DRIVE on %COMPUTERNAME% computer has: >> c:\time.txt
type c:\time.txt
type c:\freespace.txt
pause

int the Time.txt file the output comes like so...

What I can't seem to do is get it all on ONE line... What am I doing wrong?It seems the problem you are having is more with the fact that you are trying to code the way you think, and not the way batch thinks. The tricky part with this code is the time /t command. Because I don't know of any better way to do it, I'm going to use my trusty FOR command to help with this.

Code: [Select]@echo off
dir %1 | find "bytes free" > c:\freespace.txt
for /F "delims=" %%A in ('time /t') do (set curtime=%%A)
echo On %date% at %curtime% The %1 drive on %COMPUTERNAME% computer has: >> c:\time.txt
type c:\time.txt
type c:\freespace.txt
pause

If you are wanting a full output on one line in a certain file, try this:

Code: [Select]@echo off
dir %1 | find "bytes free" > c:\freespace.txt
set /p bytes=<c:\freespace.txt
for /f "delims=" %%A in ('time /t') do (set curtime=%%A)
echo On %date% at %curtime% The %1 drive on %COMPUTERNAME% computer has: %bytes%>> c:\time.txt
type c:\time.txt
pause
hmmm...I never thought of using a for STATEMENT in a batch file, heh. I will give that a try. Thanks!Code: [Select]for /f "tokens=1,2* delims= " %%A in ('dir t:\ ^| find "bytes free"') do set bytesfree=%%C
echo On %date% at %time% drive %1 has %bytesfree%
