This should work, just put the logic you need inside the FOR loop as shown.<br />
<br />

<pre><code id="code-20-39471516-1">@echo off
set &quot;ESP=C:\Program Files\eSoft\Protector&quot;
For %%i In (\bin\*.dll) Do (
  &quot;%ESP%&quot;\Protector.exe -source %%~i -target %%~i
)</code></pre>

yea, more logical. I need the target file path different from the source. I've been using this substitution syntax, not working now:<br />
<br />
set &quot;ESP=C:\Program Files\eSoft\Protector&quot;<br />
set &quot;SAFE=%1&quot;<br />
<b>Set &quot;SAFE=%SAFE:Published=Rele<wbr />ase%&quot;</b><br />
<br />
&quot;%ESP%&quot;\Protector.exe<br />
-source %1<br />
-target %SAFE%
</div>

Cool title huh. Anyway, I've been using two DOS batch files and would like to consolidate them into one batch file. Unsure how to do the 'Call'.<br />
<br />
( Batch File #1 )<br />
For %%i In (\bin\*.dll) Do (Call BatchFile2.bat &quot;%%~i&quot;)<br />
<br />
( Batch File #2 )<br />
set &quot;ESP=C:\Program Files\eSoft\Protector&quot;<br />
set &quot;SAFE=%1&quot;<br />
&quot;%ESP%&quot;\Protector.exe<br />
-source %1 <br />
-target %SAFE%<br />
<br />
( Possible One Batch File Solution Not Working )<br />
For %%i In (\bin\*.dll) Do (Goto NEXT &quot;%%~i&quot;)<br />

set &quot;ESP=C:\Program Files\eSoft\Protector&quot;<br />

DOS For Do Goto Replaces Call?

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.
