Hello

Anyone knows way around to trigger execution of multiple *.doc files in CMD?
Do i need a batch for that?

for instance i copied all .exe to .doc (or wise versa)
C:\copy *.exe *.doc

Now i needed to start all doc files with single cli command...

anyone?

Perhaps:

for %%a in (*.doc) do start "" "%%~fa"
