K:
cd wugxp
Dir *.txt /w /P
cd ..\

Dir *.doc /w /p
xcopy ls.doc C:\longshot.doc /v/w/r
cd..\..\
and I keep on getting a error when it getting rdy to xcopy that reads
File creation error - A required privilege is not held by the client.
I'm trying to copy from drive K:\ to drive c:\ If you can help that be grate.
i got it fixed
mdf1,
I don't have a K: Drive. I used D: Drive. I did not use xcopy but instead used copy. I named the batch file kay.bat. The batch file, kay.bat listed first and then the output is listed. This should get you started. Good Luck

See Post # 10 below:billrich, i think its been told you before, use code tags when POSTING your code. make it easier to read. Put code tags also if you want to demonstrate the output of your batch/script.Ghost wrote:

To demonstrate the output is as important as the code.Quote from: billrich on March 21, 2009, 02:41:30 PM

So, naturally- you cannot use code tags? You'll only get a sore head, BC_P, if you bang it against this particular BRICK wall.

you're probably right- it only looked like the MORTAR was CRACKING. Which is more important: The message or the vehicle?

We all should be clones of each other?


p.s. The code Tag was added. Don't worry; be happy.


To be the same as my fellow Clones, I must get a Tattoo@billrich, please see picture of what it means to put your code in code tags.

Here is the code asked for by mdf1 in post # 1 above

Bill Clone

Code: [Select]C:\>type kay.bat

cd \
dir wu*


Pause
REM D: will take us from C:\ drive to D:\ drive; I do not have a K: drive

cd wugxp

Dir *.txt /w /p
cd \
REM Cd \ will return to root directory D:\

cd wugxp\games
Dir *.doc /w /p

REM The following copy will copy D:\wuxp\games\ls.doc to C:\longshot.doc

REM xcopy ls.doc C:\longshot.doc /v/w/r ( do you need xcopy? )

copy ls.doc C:\longshot.doc
