Answer» Hi Fellas,
Could SOMEBODY help please. Basically, I have an output file, the content of which I would like to hold in an array to ENABLE me carry out some action, line by line.
For instance, let's just say my output file has the following 2 lines:
************************
c:\temp\myFiles\print.java c:\temp\myFiles\copy.java
************************
I then want to be able to use a for loop to recursively perform a certain action on each file. For instance, I would like to be able to copy each file to a SPECIFIED destination.
How can I get round this?Use a for loop to read thru the file, no array NEEDED. Based on your sample file, this may work:
Code: [Select] for /f %%a in (output.file) do (copy %%a destinationpath)
If you had mentioned what PROCESS had created this output.file, it might be possible to incorporate it into the FOR loop also.
Hope this helps.
