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! |

Asked by sjl1986 in MS DOS, VB Script, File Compression Utilities
Hello. I'm working with the 7zip command line tool, which is pretty basic. I've got my command set up to take all the PDF documents in a folder and place it in a zip with a password. I'm using the command line because I'm creating it for a user who isn't prepared to do the steps manually. It's just easier to let them do something that only takes a click or two.
The problem is, the batch file I'm writing for 7zip is always going to use the same password, so what I really need is for the user to be able to input the password once she starts the batch file, whether it should be read from a text or input straight into the command prompt window when it opens. Preferably the second option.
I'm trying to find a way to ask for input and place it in a temporary variable I guess, and then call that from 7zip's command line tool, but I'm not entirely sure that's even possible. Any other suggestions on how to go about doing this will be appreciated as well.
I've tried reading up on the variables in DOS, but I get lost when it starts using FOR %%A in ??? and those things. Thanks a lot!
