Help with creating a batch file in DOS.

[mlrmlr]

Hello,

I have absolutely no knowledge of Pearl, but I have 5 pearl scripts that were created to populate an Excel spreadsheet.

I currently open the pearl scrips (which opens in DOS) and hit enter twice. The scrip executes and closes. I have to do this 5 times with 5 different pearl scripts.

I was wondering if someone could help me create a batch file in DOS to generate all five scripts at one time.

This is my attempt to create a batch file.

[BEGIN CODE]
Path C:\Perl\bin
cd C:\Perl\bin\pearl.exe C:\Script\DOS\Reports\
Step 0 - WO0.pl
-CR
-CR
Step 1 - WO1.pl
-CR
-CR
Step 2 - WO2.pl
-CR
-CR
Step 3 - WO3.pl
-CR
-CR
Step 4 - WO4.pl
-CR
-CR
[END CODE]

Thanks.

Why not just edit the scripts to not have you hit enter?? And then combine them into one script.

Hi Travs69,

I don't know Pearl at all. I was sent this package to compile this report that I analyze.

It's PERL not PEARL

system('perl WO' . $_ . '.pl') for (0..4);

Please do not ask for .BAT files on the perl forum, as a refusal often offends...
