Batch programme

[sneha_23]

hi i am trying to create a batch programme that will copy the files from one folder to the other folder along with date and time.This is working fine for me. But what i want is , everytime i run a batch file , i want the results getting appended to the same text file.

This is what i have tried

Copy C:\apps\old\*.dll C:\apps\New\
cd c:\apps\New
attrib >c:\apps\result.txt
echo %date% - %time% - Copying Completed >>c:\apps\result.txt

Could anyone help me ..

Thanks in advance

The cd command is troublesome in that if you are running the batchfile from a different drive CD won't go to that drive. It looks like it should but it ONLY changes directories, not drives. Try using

c:
ahead of your cd \apps\new (or cd c:\apps\new )

The c: command will also work after the CD command

Not sure what the issue is >> will append to the file, looks like it will work fine. Maybe detail what you are doing and what is happening.
