Batch : Use the FOR command to check the files in the folder -
i have made a batch script perform following tasks : if file abc.laccdb
still in update
folder , show message : wait minute...
. if abc.laccdb
file not in 'update' folder , show message : updating data successfully.
.
my batch script :
@echo off start update_data.vbs :check %%f in (update\abc.laccdb) ( echo wait minute... goto :check ) echo updating data pause
with script above , message "wait minute ... " continuously displayed in command prompt window, though abc.laccdb
file has not in update
folder. if abc.laccdb
file not there in update
folder, bacth application run next line (echo updating data successfully)
. please correct script. thank :)

@echo off echo wait minute... start update_data.vbs ping -n 5 localhost >nul 2>nul :check if exist "update\abc.laccdb" ( ping -n 3 localhost >nul 2>nul goto :check ) echo updating data pause
display echo wait minute...
