This should LET you specify the name for both. Is this what you need?

Code: [Select]set path="C:\Program Files (x86)\WinRAR\";%path%
set /p textfile=Type the name of the file:
rar a -df -ep -mt2 C:\%textfile%.rar C:\%textfile%.txt
pause
I READ your question again, and I think I might have MISINTERPRETED your question. Do you want the batch to scan the folder for all text files and compress each one into a .rar file?Hi Linux711,
