create batch script file with user prompt and xcopy - batch-file

Question

I'm trying to create a batch script file to help an administrative assistant in my work group. Let's call him John.
John receives many CDs daily from clients containing architectural drawings as PDFs. Each CD is unique. John assigns it an Application Number, and creates a new folder on the network drive with the Application Number as the folder name. John then copies all the files on the CD to the newly created folder name. He repeats this process for every CD he receives.
I don't have any programming experience so I hope you can lend me a hand. Here's what I wrote below but it's not working. I get an "Insufficient memory" error. A new folder name based on the user input is correctly created on the network drive path but it's empty.
Thanks for your help! FYI, I'm running Windows 7 64-bit
#echo off
echo Welcome team member!
pause
set /p anumber=Type in the Application Number then press Enter key when done.
mkdir "S:\ARCH\Active Forms and Files\Submittal Floor Plans\%anumber%\"
:: e:\ is the CD drive path
set source=e:\
:: S:\ is a network drive
set destination="S:\ARCH\Active Forms and Files\Submittal Floor Plans\%anumber%\"
xcopy %source%\* %destination%\* /s /e /l /h /i >nul
pause
exit

Answer 1

You were setting the variable %source% to e:\ which was the read by the interpreter as E:\\* when used in %source%\*, leading to an invalid directory. The same was being done to the %destination% variable.
Updated Script:
#echo off
set "networkFolder=S:\ARCH\Active Forms and Files\Submittal Floor Plans"
set "CDDrive=e:"
echo Welcome team member!
:input
set "applicationNo="
set /p "applicationNo=Enter the Application Number and press ENTER: "
if not defined applicationNo goto :input
set "newLocation=%networkFolder%\%applicationNo%"
:actions
md "%newLocation%"
xcopy %CDDrive%\* "%newLocation%" /s /e /i /h>nul
echo Completed!
pause
