You can use<br />
<br />
for /F &quot;tokens=2 delims=:&quot; %%R in ('schtask /query /TN &quot;Taskname&quot; /v ^| findstr /i result') do set /A result=%%R<br />
<br />
with &quot;Taskname&quot; replaced by the task you want to check.<br />

You can use

for /F "tokens=2 delims=:" %%R in ('schtask /query /TN "Taskname" /v ^| findstr /i result') do set /A result=%%R

with "Taskname" replaced by the task you want to check.

Thanks for getting back to me on this.<br />
<br />
The /tn &quot;taskname&quot; parameter seems not valid for /query also had to use schtasks.<br />

Hi Experts,<br />
<br />
Can anyone give me a batch file &nbsp;if statement to check last result of a scheduled task.<br />
<br />
We use a scheduled task batch file that renames and moves backup files but it copies over good backups with bad ones.<br />
<br />
I'd like to test if last resullt = 0x0 prior to the copy to ensure I don't loose good backups.<br />
<br />
Thanks, <br />
<br />

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.
