I want to copy the contents of one folder to another folder, and pause after each file is copied. How can this be done with a batch file? (HAT already solved) One more question: if I use the xcopy command, how can I pause after each folder is copied? I'm sincerely asking for advice, experts please help [ Last edited by rjoe on 2008-8-23 at 05:36 PM ]

One more question: why can't xcopy copy folders? In other words, how should the variable for folders under c:\test\aaa\ be set?

xcopy source destination /E really can copy folders, but it won't pause. Is there any other parameter?

@echo off for /f "delims=" %%a in ('dir/b/ad d:\test') do ( echo d\| xcopy "d:\test\%%a" "c:\test\%%a" /e /s pause ) Done, if there are still problems please advise! [ Last edited by rjoe on 2008-8-24 at 12:05 AM ]
