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!

Copy a file to a network folder w/ one click

Asked by RobotMan in Windows 2000 Operating System

I would like to copy a file to a print server by clicking on it.  I had thought that this might be possible by writing a batch file that would take the name of the file as a input, then copy the file over to the network folder.  This is basically a file that I want to send to a print server que.  Currrently, I use MS-DOS to copy the file, but it's rather cumbersome and often results in mistakes.

I searched around and found something that looked like it might get me started, but I don't know how to associate the BAT with the file.  Help!?!

set filename=%~1
rem ---  testing purposes, remove this line and the 2 lines below it in production
echo %filename%
rem --- copy C:\%filename% \\SERVERNAME\DVR0P019 /B
