Hi,
I am new to scripting so excuse me if I am anything silly.
I need a batch script and my requirement is as follows:
I have some file names (around 30)and I can put them in a text file (say test1.txt) and I want a script to search these files in C: drive and as a output generate a text file which says filename1 YES (means its present) otherwise say filename1 NO.

If anyone can help me I would be highly thankful.

Thanks,
Uttam

Save the following batch as e.g. look.bat

@echo off
for /f "tokens=* delims=" %%j in (test1.txt) do (
dir /S /B "C:\%%j" | find /I "%%j" > Nul
if errorlevel 1 (echo."%%j" NO) else (echo."%%j" YES)
)
:: End_Of_Batch

then type at prompt

look > out.txt

and you get your list in out.txt.
