I am making a test in notepad and saving it as a batch file to use. I haven't had any problem writing and testing up until now. I was fixing all the problems in the file in Notepad. I saved often and tested every time I saved. Now I can't test the file. When I first try and open it up, I get an error that says "The Syntax of the Command is Incorrect." I don't know what the heck I did wrong. Could someone please look at this part of the file? This is all that I edited before the last save. @echo off :D cls echo. echo __________________________ echo | _____ | echo || | ***** / | echo || | * | | echo || /\ | *** | | echo || / \ | * | | echo ||/ \| ***** \_____ | echo |________________________| echo. echo Welcome to WEC's test by WEC echo Do you wish to play this game? echo. echo Yes or No? echo. set input= set /p input=Please type in a for Yes or b for No and press "Enter". if %input%==a goto Y if %input%==b goto N I added the big "WEC" sign before this happened. If I need to post more of the file, just say so. William E C I AM WEC!!! "No waste of time here, just a hell of a lot of fun!" -Me

I don't know what the heck I did wrong. Step 1: Remove @ECHO OFF. Then you'll know where your error was. Actually, 75% - 80% of my scripts never turn ECHO off. In this case, replace | with ^|.
