I am apparenlty unable to get the %MYFILES% environment variable to work correctly.

---------------------------
For Example:

- I have attached "choice.com" for use in a simple batch script
- In my script I am doing this:
%myfiles%\choice Is this information correct, and are you ready to continue
if errorlevel=2 goto BadInfo

This results in inability of the script to find choice.com. The same thing happens with deltree and zip utility executables.
---------------------------

Any ideas?

Thanks

or use SET command to get use input.

Hello,
Am trying this out and works great, but i want to create a folder in a temp directory and copy some files into it. So far any folder i create appears on the desktop, is it possible for the folder to be created elsewhere , ie so user does not see. in the application that runs the temp folder will be deleted. The folder does not have to be the actual temp folder, just a folder in a location, other than the desktop.


any advice ??

thank you

You can use system variables, for example %TEMP%
