Hi,
Is there some kind of a switch I can I have in my bat file that would show the target destination also rather than just
the source when it displays the CMD window?


From this:
C:\users\rls\Agent\Data\00000002.IDX

To something like this:
C:\users\rls\Agent\Data\00000002.IDX D:\Agent\Data\00000002.IDX


Have a good day,
RScotti

remove "nospam" in order to email me.

Not like that. But you could assign each to a variable.

"Source" for what? "Target" for what? In order to have
a source and a target, you need some command, not
just a Command Prompt.

Hi Pegasus,
Not sure I understand you.The above command is from the bat file and is displayed in the command prompt window when
executed.I want the display in the CMD window to show both the source & destination AS IT IS IN THE BAT FILE!

Naturally each one of these commands have several sources & destinations.
BUT this is the way the display shows it. Just all the Sources. This is just for the first line for the 1st Agent
destination below:

I hope I cleared this up so you can understand what I want?

Which "above command"? I am unable to see one!

I don't think it is a "command" I believe it is a string or something like that in my bat file.

This is what I see now in the output CMD window
C:\users\rls\Agent\Data\00000002.IDX

This is what I want to see in the output CMD window.
C:\users\rls\Agent\Data\00000002.IDX D:\Agent\Data\00000002.IDX

I am not experienced in these things so I don't know if I am using the right wording or terminology but you should see
from my information what I want?

Have a good day,
RScotti

When you open a Command Prompt then the prompt reflects
the current "working directory". Here are some examples:
c:\>
c:\Documents and Settings\Agent\My Documents>
C:\users\rls\Agent\Data\00000002.IDX>

You say that you want to see something like
C:\users\rls\Agent\Data\00000002.IDX D:\Agent\Data\00000002.IDX
and you say that the first string should be the source, the other
the destination. This makes no sense. Assume that you're standing
at the entrance of the Empire State Building. Your "working
directory" would now be
C:\Empire State Building\Front Entrance>

Since you're not moving, how can there be a destination?

If you're running a batch file then it would be a good idea
to post your batch file in order to clarify your question.

"RScotti" <(E-Mail Removed)> wrote ...
>>xcopy /s /y /d /h /c "C:\users\rls\Agent" "K:\Agent\"


To show the full source and destination, add a /f paramter to the XCOPY
command. For example, change:

xcopy /s /y /d /h /c "C:\users\rls\Agent" "K:\Agent\"

to

xcopy /s /y /d /h /c /f "C:\users\rls\Agent" "K:\Agent\"

Repeat for each of the xcopy commands.

At a command prompt, type "xcopy /?" to see all the options for the xcopy
command.

Hope it helps,
