China DOS Union

I have a section of commands like this:
dir %gpath%*.gho /b /s >>%temp%\tmp.txt
I thought DIR was too slow, so I borrowed LOCATE from Yiyesong's boot disk and changed it to:
locate %gpath%*.gho /n >%temp%\tmp.txt
When this command is used by itself, it can find the GHOST image file on the specified drive, but why does it stop working when put into the command line above?
I'd appreciate it if some expert could point it out

What exactly do you mean by "not working"? I tried it, and it works.

I may not have explained it clearly.
If I use dir d: *.gho /b /s >>%temp%\tmp.txt and locate d: *.gho /n >%temp%\tmp.txt,
the final results shown in tmp.txt are the same for both, just a simple line like "d:\backup\xppro.gho". I thought it had succeeded, so I put it on the disk, but in actual use the latter always tells me it can't find it. It made me furious, and then I manually entered the command locate d: *.gho under DOS, and it found it immediately. I don't understand what's going on.
Never mind, boss, I'll just paste the batch file here. Please help me see where the problem is.
