04/01/2010 06/30/2010 Group3

... ... ...

I want to retrive those column values as parameter values in batch file.

I want output as ,

Iteration1:
Val1 = start_date1
Val2 = End_date1
Group = Group1
Run Java command with val1,val2,group1


Iteration:2
Val1 = Start_date2
Val2 = End_date2
Group = Group2

Please help me to get solution for this problem.

Please don't double post, it's just more work for the admins.

<untested>

for /f "usebackq tokens=1-3" %%a in ("Date.txt") do (
    javacommand %%a %%b %%c
)

Javacommand with start_date,end_date,group1 for each iteration.

It depends, are you trying to go line-for-line so the output is the same as it would have been with the original or run every group with every date?

-


What I mean is if you have these files:

-----> Date.txt

01/01/2010 03/31/2010
01/01/2010 06/30/2010
04/01/2010 06/30/2010
01/31/2010 02/28/2010

----->Group.txt

Group1
Group2
Group3
Group4

Would it look like this:

javacommand 01/01/2010 03/31/2010 Group1
javacommand 01/01/2010 06/30/2010 Group2
javacommand 04/01/2010 06/30/2010 Group3
javacommand 01/31/2010 02/28/2010 Group4

or this:

javacommand 01/01/2010 03/31/2010 Group1
javacommand 01/01/2010 03/31/2010 Group2
javacommand 01/01/2010 03/31/2010 Group3
javacommand 01/01/2010 03/31/2010 Group4
javacommand 01/01/2010 06/30/2010 Group1
javacommand 01/01/2010 06/30/2010 Group2
javacommand 01/01/2010 06/30/2010 Group3
javacommand 01/01/2010 06/30/2010 Group4
javacommand 04/01/2010 06/30/2010 Group1
javacommand 04/01/2010 06/30/2010 Group2
javacommand 04/01/2010 06/30/2010 Group3
javacommand 04/01/2010 06/30/2010 Group4
javacommand 01/31/2010 02/28/2010 Group1
javacommand 01/31/2010 02/28/2010 Group2
javacommand 01/31/2010 02/28/2010 Group3
javacommand 01/31/2010 02/28/2010 Group4
