    a ? about .bat files!!!
    i want a .bat file that will copy the the location of other files from a .txt and then copy those files to say the a: drive.

    the .txt will have 'C;\winnt\myfile1.txt'
    'C;\winnt\myfile2.txt'

    it reads the txt and then copies those two files to a different location that i specify.

    cheers

    It can be done, but it's tricky...
    you'd be better off doing it with an extension of Dos (e.g. 4NT), Perl, or some Unix variant(e.g. MKS toolkit)..

    It would be alot more straightforward..

    In fact it would be alot easier to create a small VB application..
