Hello everyone!

I am currently making a batch script for backing up files for operating system configuration. The desired effect is: place the batch script in any folder and run it, then it copies the files listed in the file path in the batch script to the current folder, and retains the original file path.

===============
@echo off
@eho c:\IBM\123\456\789.nsf
@eho c:\IBM\abc\cd.id
@eho c:\Lotus\abc\cd.js
:This line of code is the key, which is to COPY the above two files to the current folder, and these 2 files are copied to the directory under the current folder + original path. ???
exit
================
Example:
After running this batch script in the bak folder under the root directory of drive E, the following effect will be produced:
E:\bak\IBM\123\456\789.nsf
E:\bak\IBM\abc\cd.id
E:\bak\Lotus\abc\cd.js
After running this batch script in the load folder under the root directory of drive F, the following effect will be produced:
F:\load\IBM\123\456\789.nsf
F:\load\IBM\abc\cd.id
F:\load\Lotus\abc\cd.js


Please ask everyone how to write the batch script? Both bat or vbs are acceptable, thank you!

This is simple, the following line meets your requirement.

xcopy /d/r/y/e/h %cd% E:\bak\

I haven't tried the effect of this sentence yet, but what if it runs in the up folder on drive F? Hehe... The purpose is to generate the current folder path + the original path + the file.
COPY the above N files to the current folder, and these N files are copied into the directory under the current folder + the original path.
So it is inappropriate to write E:\bak\ as the current folder path in the batch processing, but still thank you for your help!

I just feel that such a function should be implemented with FOR plus XCOPY, but I haven't got a clue yet. Please give me some guidance, sir!

@echo off
set a=c:\IBM\123\456\789.nsf&set b=c:\IBM\abc\cd.id&set c=c:\Lotus\abc\cd.js
for /f "delims=" %%i in ('cd') do copy %a% %%i%a:~2%&copy %b% %%i%b:~2%&copy %c% %%i%c:~2%

@echo off
set a=C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Microsoft\AddIns\polynimials.chm
for /f "delims=" %%i in ('cd') do copy %a% %%i%a:~2%

After testing, it can only copy files in the root directory of the disk to the current folder. Such a function can be achieved with the COPY command alone.
If it is a file in a certain folder or a file in a multi-level subfolder, no matter whether the path has spaces or not, it prompts that the specified file is not found by the system! And it cannot generate the required multi-level file directory.
The revolution is not yet successful, still please big shots give pointers! Thank you...

```batch
@echo off
for /f "tokens=*" %%i in ('more +7 "%~0"') do (
echo f|xcopy /e/q "%%i" "%cd%%%~pnxi">nul
)
pause
goto :eof

c:\IBM\123\456\789.nsf
c:\IBM\abc\cd.id
c:\Lotus\abc\cd.js
```

Hello, Mr. abcd!

When running this bat, an internal error is prompted. May I ask how to modify it so that this bat can be used to copy the following 3 files?
c:\IBM\123\456\789.nsf
c:\IBM\abc\cd.id
c:\Lotus\abc\cd.js

```
@echo off
set a=c:\IBM&set b=c:\IBM&set c=c:\Lotus
for /f "delims=" %%i in ('cd') do xcopy /e %a% %%i%a:~2%\&xcopy /e %b% %%i%b:~2%\&xcopy /e %c% %%i%c:~2%\
```

This code doesn't specify the source file. How to copy?
If you change the above to set a=c:\IBM\456\78j9.txt, then only this file is copied to the current directory, and the original path-level folders are still not there

The xcopy /e command means to copy all the contents in the folder (including empty folders). Did you test it?

There is no more foolish way than this, but it must be achievable (if the number of directory levels is different, make corresponding changes):

@echo off

set aa=c:\IBM\123\456\789.nsf

set ab=c:\IBM\abc\cd.id

set ac=c:\Lotus\abc\cd.js

set path=%cd%

for /f "tokens=2-4 delims=\" %%a in ("%aa%") do (

md %%a&cd %%a&&md %%b&cd %%b&&md %%c&cd %%c

copy /y "%aa%"

)

cd %path%

for /f "tokens=2,3 delims=\" %%i in ("%ab%") do (

md %%i&cd %%i&&md %%j&cd %%j

copy /y "%ab%"

)

cd %path%

for /f "tokens=2,3 delims=\" %%m in ("%ac%") do (

md %%m&cd %%m&&md %%n&cd %%n

copy /y "%ac%"

)

pause

Thank you, sir! But my original file path is relatively deep, and there are very many system files. Copying the folder in this way brings unwanted files, which is not the result of the specified file I wanted. Thanks...

Then we have to create empty folders first, and the code will be much more.
