@echo off
if "%computername:~0,3%"=="XXX" echo Run a command
There you can insert a command.

Execute
SET /? or have a look at the
command index.

If you want to execute a command if the comparison matches then you certainly should write this command instead.

If you would give us information what you want we could give you a complete solution: for example: "I want to start abc.exe if computer name starts with XXX..."

I see you didn't even come close to reading the help file for the IF command.
Code: Select all
The ELSE clause must occur on the same line as the command after the IF. For
example:
IF /i %computername:~0,6%==mokedm (
echo yes
) ELSE (
echo no
)

I don't understand your question. Just use ELSE IF
Code: Select all
if /i "%computername:~0,6%"=="mokedm" (
echo yes
) else if /i "%computername:~0,5%"=="abcde" (
echo yes
) else (
echo no
)

Going forward please use CODE tags in your responses.
Has any example we have given you shown you that you can put the IF command on its own line and the comparison on a separate line?

Batch File script - by computer name

Hi,
Did this:
---------
@echo off
IF /I %COMPUTERNAME:~0,3%==PCM
(Do THIS1)
ELSE IF /i %computername:~0,3%== "PCS
(DO THIS2)
ELSE IF /i %computername:~0,2%%= "PC"
(DO THIS3)
--------------
got 3 pcs:
1 = PCM01
2= PCS01
3 = PC01
when run script on 1 - it need to do = "DO THIS1"
when run script on 2 - it need to do = "DO THIS2"
when run script on 3 - it need to do = "DO THIS3"
BUT NOTHING Happends
What I'm doing wrong?
Thanks, Gil

Well, if it looks
exactly like that, it's because your parentheses are in the wrong place. You also need parentheses on
both sides of the == operator, and there were a few other typos that were breaking things.
Code: Select all
@echo off
IF /I "%COMPUTERNAME:~0,3%"=="PCM" (
Do THIS1
) ELSE IF /i "%computername:~0,3%"=="PCS" (
DO THIS2
) ELSE IF /i "%computername:~0,2%"=="PC"(
DO THIS3
)
