I am driving myself crasy trying to read this txt file in a batch file:
Binary CapabilityDescriptions Caption Availability
TRUE Intel(R) Active Management Technology - SOL (COM3) 2
TRUE Intel(R) Active Management Technology - SOL (COM4) 2
TRUE Intel(R) Active Management Technology - SOL (COM5) 2
I am trying to get the the COM number if the Caption contains the string "Intel".
Try this:
#echo off
setlocal
for /f "tokens=4 delims=()" %%a in ('findstr "Intel(R)" findintel.txt') do echo %%a

I want to create a bat file that will search for a specific expression in a text file and copy it to my clipboard,
Example:
I want to search in this file C:\test.log The first instance of:
TestSerialNumber = %%%%%%%%%
(The %%%%%%%% are 8 numbers, for example: TestSerialNumber = 44436643, the numbers change)
And copy only the numbers to the clipboard
I got entangled with finding the first show.
I would appreciate help
This should work:
for /f "tokens=2 delims== " %%a in ('findstr TestSerialNumber c:\test.log') do echo %%a | clip

# echo off
move /y c:\program files (x86)\presst~1\Newsview\received\coreplus \\edt_np\pti
#echo off
d:\sleep 30
d:\wire.bat
You need to "quote parameters containing separators"
move /y "c:\program files (x86)\presst~1\Newsview\received\coreplus" \\edt_np\pti
Just had a rough look:
Seems like you need to use some " for your paths. A space leads the programm to think that the next argument start but your arguments are not c:\program and files and (x86) etc. Instead it is one string "c:\program files (x86)\presst~1\Newsview\received\coreplus"

How do I remove a batch file I just used with a batch code line?
Like a code that does this:
remove thisbat.bat
Thanks in advance.
Some people will tell you to just put
DEL "%~f0"
on the last line, but that usually causes an error in that the BAT file can no longer find itself. You should use the following statement on the last line of your BAT file, because after it hits this line your BAT file is gone:
start /b "" cmd /c del "%~f0"&exit /b
This will launch a new delete process within the same console, thus eliminating any "file can no longer be found" errors.

Through windows batch file, I am trying to -
a. open a folder > open latest '.hl7. file (by date) in the folder.
b. search a specific value in the file. e.g value of the key 'name'
c. echo the value.
I am new to scripting, Can anybody help me write a script for the same?
I am not sure about the format of the HL7 files but this will get the most latest HL7 file into env variable MyFile and then print the lines in the file that have "name" in them.
#set MyFile=
#for /F %%I in ('dir /od /b *.hl7') do set MyFile=%%I
#if defined MyFile find "name" %MyFile%
If HL7 has many different formats you may be better off writing a program that uses an HL7 library to parse your file.
I hope this helps you get started.

I need to save list of DOS commands itself in a text file.
But when I am using
echo copy source_file target_file >> new_command.txt
it is writing the copy command to the file correctly but at the same time it is executing the command.
What I want is that this should only write the copy command to the file without executing it..
new_command.txt should contain
echo copy source_file target_file
I don't know why you want to do this though :)
echo echo copy source_file target_file >> new_command.txt
