To illustrate my story there are some examples you can try for yourself. For an overview of redirection and piping, view my original redirection page. Display text To display a text on screen we have the ECHO command: ECHO Hello world This will show the following text on screen: Hello world When I say "on screen", I'm actually referring to the "DOS Prompt", "console" or "command window", or whatever other "alias" is used. Streams The output we see in this window may all look alike, but it can actually be the result of 3 different "streams" of text, 3 "processes" that each send their text to thee same window. Those of you familiar with one of the Unix/Linux shells probably know what these streams are: Standard Output Standard Error Console Standard Output is the stream where all, well, standard output of commands is being sent to. The ECHO command sends all its output to Standard Output. Standard Error is the stream where many (but not all) commands send their error messages. And some, not many, commands send their output to the screen bypassing Standard Output and Standard Error, they

For example: 1 - means failed for such and such a reason 2 - means failed for some other reason ... echo FAILED: Test case failed, error level: %errorlevel% >> TestSuite1Log.txt Instead I'd like to somehow say: echo FAILED: Test case failed, error http://stackoverflow.com/questions/130273/cmd-and-bat-file-converting-return-code-to-an-error-message reason: lookupError(%errorlevel%) >> TestSuite1Log.txt Is this possible with a .bat file?

This allows you to use ! as variable marker that is evaluated after %. REM Turn on Delayed Expansion SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION REM Define messages as variables with the ERRORLEVEL on the end of the name SET MESSAGE0=Everything is fine SET MESSAGE1=Failed for such and such a reason SET MESSAGE2=Failed for some other reason REM Set ERRORLEVEL - or run command here SET ERRORLEVEL=2 REM Print the message corresponding to the ERRORLEVEL ECHO !MESSAGE%ERRORLEVEL%! Type HELP SETLOCAL and HELP SET at a command prompt for more information on delayed expansion. share|improve this answer answered Sep 24 '08 at 22:29 Dave Webb 124k36247269 I like the simplicity of that, my response harks back to longer ago DOS days. When was the ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION option added? –Ray Hayes Sep 24 '08 at 22:32 Oh, something to be careful of, the "setlocal" command shown above will overwrite the ERRORLEVEL. Make sure setlocal is called before the command that sets the er

I know I can use errorlevel but then I won't know what the error was.

I want the script to skip a step if one of the locations is unavailable. I'm using the following script: @echo off NET USE \\192.168.10.90\IPC$ ROBOCOPY \\192.168.10.90\lgrdata\ \ICOS\Analyser_backups\LGR_Flux\ /NP /TEE /E /dcopy:T /Z /LOG:C:\logfiles\LGR\robocopyjob_log.txt NET USE \\192.168.10.90\IPC$ /D NET USE \\192.168.10.91\IPC$ ROBOCOPY \\192.168.10.91\lgrdata\ \ICOS\Analyser_backups\LGR_Profile\ /NP /TEE /E /dcopy:T /Z /LOG+:C:\logfiles\LGR\robocopyjob_log.txt NET USE \\192.168.10.91\IPC$ /D robocopy C:\ICOS\Analyser_backups\ Z:\Analyser_backups\ /NP /TEE /E /dcopy:T /Z /LOG+:C:\logfiles\LGR\robocopyjob_log.txt for /f "tokens=2-8 delims=.:/ " %%a in ("%date% %time: =0%") do rename "C:\logfiles\LGR\robocopyjob_log.txt" rclog_%%c-%%a-%%b_%%d%%e.txt This works fine, when both network locations are available. I want the script to continue if either location is not present. I get error 53 when one instrument is not present, and then there is a 30 second wait, and then the connection is retried. This continues forever. I tried using IF ERRORLEVEL 53 GOTO If I put this after the NET USE command, it seems to be ignored. If I place it at the beginning of the script, the script closes without doing anything. Any ideas how I can skip the step if the instrument is not present? Perhaps there is some way of using PING to identify if it is there first? windows command-line batch robocopy share|improve this question edited Apr 15 '14 at 15:18 asked Apr 15 '14 at 11:25 Robert Holden 23227 Please could you tidy up your script so it is more obvious where you want the help, so the answer can be better. As in please take out the rem lines that are not relevant to your question. I had to guess at what you wanted to
