DOS Batch file to ping a user entered IP address

[igessey]

Hi

Im looking to create a DOS batch file to, amongst other things, ping an ip address that the user inputs.

There needs to be an input along the lines of:

"Please enter the IP address:"

After enter, the routine will just ping and export to a txt file (i can do that bit no worries).

Any clues please?

The person inputting wont need error checking for for formatting as it will only be used by people who know what an IP address is!

Thanks
