Sequential file backup

What is the OS requirement for this?

I wanted to use it also in an old xp sp2 machine.

Ok. I drag a file onto the batch file?

Where will the target file go?

Sequential file backup

Hello everyone

I need to backup a File.ext in the same folder renaming the backup to: File.1.ext for the 1st time, File.2.ext for the second time, etc
(Or another perhaps easier renaming method)

Can you help me with the code?

Thanks

Re: Split Multiple vCard vcf file into many

Thank you Aacini. To the point as always! As an alternative to numbered files output, would it be too hard to code for "LastName.FirstName.MiddleName.vcf" output? That info is stored in the line always starting with "N:" Sample input file: BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 N:Last;First;Middle;Prefix(Mr.);Suff...

Re: Split Multiple vCard vcf file into many

Thank you Antonio, I visited the thread you mentioned. Blame it on old age (70), blame it on stupidity, I do not get it! Please set forth exactly what you are asking me to supply. Note: As an alternative to numbered files output, please show the code for "LastName(.FirstName.MiddleName)*.vcf" output...

Split Multiple vCard vcf file into many

Hi
Each record starts "BEGIN:VCARD" with and ends with "END:VCARD"

Thanks

Re: VFile creator

WOW!!! THANK YOU VERYYYY MUCH!!! Although I know nothing about VBS, I took the liberty of modifying it for 6 fields Option Explicit Const inFile = "Test.txt" Const outFile = "T1.txt" Dim oFSO, oInFile, oOutFile, arrDataSets, dataSet, arrData Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set ...

Re: VFile creator

Thanks AR Coding.
I will leave that to experts in here as it is over my head.

I cannot find a utility that will do this either.
I thought maybe in word, but only mailmerge exists there. :(

VFile creator

Thank you very much. I am sure you will find a way! Is there anything I could be modifying in the test.txt file so that does not happen? I do not mean just omit the LF's as the result (all in one continuous paragraph) won't be appealing. Lastly, do you know of any software that will be able to do th...

VFile creator

Sure, here it is...

The problem lies in that the "Body" variable may contain multiple lines (SUB in this case, Carriage Returns in other cases)
It seems the variable reads only the part up to the first sub and passes the rest into the next loop, leaving the rest of the fields empty for that record.

Re: VFile creator

I used

Code: Select all

@echo off
>"t1.log" (for /f "usebackq tokens=1-3 delims=;" %%i in ("test.txt") do (
echo %%i
echo %%j
echo %%k))
however I am getting
echo is off
echo is off
when the SUB is encountered.

I need the exact character to be returned
