Insert String

Can someone teach me to insert string to every line of a textfile? For example - the textfile goes like this: 1.zip 2.zip 3.zip Then the final product should give: del 1.zip del 2.zip del 3.zip Is that possible? Please Help. Thanks

Study this model. Comment out the DEL statement and examine the temporary batches it produces, then you will have your answer.
:: deltmps.bat @ECHO off SET quote= IF not "%winbootdir%"=="" IF not "%windir%"=="" set quote=" ECHO @PROMPT DEL %quote%>%temp%.\deltmp1.bat DIR/A-D/B/O/S c:\*.tmp >>%temp%.\deltmp1.bat CTTY nul %COMSPEC%/C%temp%.\deltmp1.bat |FIND ":\">%temp%.\deltmp2.bat CTTY con CALL %temp%.\deltmp2.bat DEL %temp%.\deltmp?.bat

Lawrence...this is so complicated. It is that I just cut and paste the whole thing from your reply into a bat file called deltmps.bat and that's all? What should i type if my text file is called 1.txt?
