Hi! I really appreciate if some one can help me on this. Thanks much! I got a bat (Job.bat) file that executes several commands (like: 1. Copy, 2. Delete a file, 3. Again Copy and 4. Move a file) as follows: :label1 copy file1 file2 :label2 del file1 :label3 copy file2 file3 :label4 move file3 /otherplace/file3 What I want to have a log file that will keep track of waht job I am performing that is the label name after a successful job. Say job3 fialed, and when I want to restart the entire job the log file is read and since it finds an entry for Job2, I want to start /restart the entire process from job3 only and not starting from job1. Can this be done in an easy way? Thanks again!

Let me see if I understood it right... If the process on label2 is unsuccessful, you want the batch file to exit and when it is run again, you want it to jump strigt to label2 again. Right? If so, I believe the following will do: @echo off set label= if exist log.bat call log.bat if not "%label%"=="" goto %label% :label1 echo set label=label1> log.bat copy file1 file2 if errorlevel=1 goto exit :label2 echo set label=label2> log.bat del file1 if errorlevel=1 goto exit :label3 echo set label=label3> log.bat copy file2 file3 if errorlevel=1 goto exit :label4 echo set label=label4> log.bat move file3 /otherplace/file3 if errorlevel=1 goto exit echo set label=label1> log.bat :exit The log file extention (in this sample, log.bat) must be .bat. This sample assumes the commands will return errorlevels greater than 0 if an error occurs. -- Leonardo Pignataro - Secret_Doom -- secret_doom@hotmail.com www.batch.hpg.com.br
