The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Using a LIST and LOOP within a batch file

Asked by Diabeticus in MS DOS

Tags: wzzip, batch, loop, files

Hi all, virgin user here.

I have what I think may be a relatively easy question.  Not for me, otherwise I wouldn't have ot ask it.

I have a batch file that will be running the winzip command line interface.  
e.g.
wzzip -a -P -r tempfolder\myzip_file.zip somefile.txt

this command line zips up "somefile.txt" into "myzip_file.zip".

The plan is to use that line in a BATfile that will do a bunch of other stuff after zipping up the file.  So this line:
wzzip -a -P -r tempfolder\myzip_file.zip somefile.txt
will be a line in a BAT file.  

So I would like to do something like this:

BEGINNING OF BATCH FILE

 BEGIN LIST
   File1.TXT
   File2.TXT
   File3.TXT
 END LIST

 wzzip -a -P -r tempfolder\myzip_file.zip VARIABLE

(where this VARIABLE runs this command for every item in the list)


SO I need it to iterate through the list, i.e. loop through the list, and run

"wzzip -a -P -r tempfolder\myzip_file.zip VARIABLE" for each variable, and then continue through the rest of the batch file.

(*NOTE* there is a "@listfile" option in the wzzip.exe program that will pull the contents of a named listfile and include that list in the ZIP file.  There is more to this zipfile than what I mentioned, so unfortunately that option is not useful to me in this instance.  Just in case you are familiar with this program)
