Hi I would like to delete the next line (not empty) in a file following a search string. I can find the line with the string with "FOR /F", but i need to delete the next line of this file.

In order to write a batch, one would need to know the OS.

Hi I had to change your script a little bit. 1) i also want to remove the line with the string that i searched and 2) the file has lines with "[sometext]" inside. So i had change "find" to "findstr" -------------------- SET OutFile=sidtest.conf SET Identifier=ictr1t
for /f "tokens=1 delims=:" %%a in ('findstr /n "%Identifier%" ^< sid.conf') do ( set /a N=%%a+1 )
for /f "tokens=1* delims=:" %%a in ('findstr /n /v %Identifier% ^< sid.conf') do ( if not %%a equ !N! echo %%b >> %OutFile% ) --------------------- Now i have the problem if it has "empty" lines in the file it will be replaced with "ECHO is off." ->how do i supress this? Thank you very much for your help Regards Andy
