in the script I set the current working directory to match the directory the files are in with this two lines:<br />
<br />
&nbsp; c:<br />
&nbsp; cd c:\files<br />
<br />
change these as appropriate and the script should work as is.<br />

Hi , <br />
Nightly im copying over gz files from another server. Then uncompressing them with:<br />
gzip -f -k -d c:\files\*.gz<br />
<br />
If the folder already contains gz which it does , it overwrite the uncompressed file again each night ( i remove this on a regular basis but need to keep them for a week..)<br />
<br />
When i remove the force swtich im asked to confirm yes/no for overwrite.<br />
<br />
How do i build this into a Batch file?<br />
<br />
Cheers!

Microsoft Disk Operating System (MS-DOS) was an operating system for x86-based personal computers, and traces of it are still found in the Windows operating system. DOS is still used in some embedded systems and for certain legacy 16-bit networks.

Batch files are text files containing a script of commands that are executed by the command interpreter on DOS, OS/2 and Windows systems. Most commonly, they are used to perform a series of functions that are repeated -- copying a set of files created daily with one step, for example.
