RE: nt script

Windows NT Shell Scripting by Tim Hill is a very good start.

>>> Jacques.Kilchoer_at_quest.com 03/07/03 12:34PM >>> Can anyone recommend a book / website on the DOS batch file language? I usually try to install cygwin and write shell scripts but some of our database servers don't have cygwin.
For example, I have no idea what this statement does: FOR /F "TOKENS=1,2*" %%A IN ('DATE/T') DO SET DATE=%%B and when I tried it I received an error
H:\>FOR /F "TOKENS=1,2*" %%A IN ('DATE/T') DO SET DATE=%%B %%A was unexpected at this time.
