Hi,
I would like a batch script to all the text documents in a folder. This is what I have managed so far
@ECHO off
title Test
set dir1=C:\Users\Family\Desktop\Example
:Start
cls
echo 1. test loop
echo 2. Quit
set /p choice=I choose (1,2):
if %choice%==1 goto test
if %choice%==2 exit
:test
cls
echo running loop test
FOR %%n in (%dir1% *.txt) DO echo %dir1%\%%n
echo Done
pause
What I would like outputted is
running loop test
C:\Users\Family\Desktop\Example\doc 1.txt
C:\Users\Family\Desktop\Example\doc 2.txt
Done
But I Get this
running loop test
C:\Users\Family\Desktop\Example\C:\Users\Family\Desktop\Example
C:\Users\Family\Desktop\Example\doc 1.txt
C:\Users\Family\Desktop\Example\doc 2.txt
Done
Thanks in advance Kyle
