Yesterday you said your work doesn't need to be done in a batch file. Any of these environments will allow you to easily write a standard Windows .exe executable program. You'll have more complete access to the file system, robust error handling ( in case a file is locked temporarily, or the target disc doesn't have enough room ), the ability to log your progress, and all sorts of other things. You can also use a simple dialog box to prompt the use for different drives, or a file pattern (eg file*.exe) or anything else that might be important.
What you keep asking about, at the absolute simplest with none of these extras we're talking about right now might take 15 lines of code and 5 minutes to write. I can give you help with that, and so can the many other kind folks in here.
The three links I put into this message take you to free compilers and IDEs with help files, so basically everything you need. These are all Microsoft's latest and arguably greatest, and the computer(s) your program runs on will need the Microsoft .NET Framework installed, but you'd have to look around to find a Windows machine that doesn't. |
