I'm trying to create a batch file that will run another batch file and then take the file that the other batch file created, move it to a mapped drive and timestamp it. It works up untill the point were it has to move it and then I get 'c:\dump-itos.dmp was unexpected at this time'

Here's what I have so far

@ECHO OFF
set dumppass=stuff
call c:\dbexportdump.cmd %dumppass%
cd c:\
move dump-itos.dmp z:\backup
ren z:\backup\dump-itos.dmp%date%
exit

REM out the @echo off and re-run, where does the error apply?
