Your bat2.bat could contain something like that:

Code: Select all

@echo off
if not "%~1"=="" goto %~1
...
:starthere
...

The call in bat1.bat could be:

Code: Select all

@echo off
...
call bat2.bat starthere
...

Have you saved the first code as bat2.bat in the same folder as bat1.bat? What's your OS? Try without the CALL command (only bat2.bat starthere).

I wouldn't use the call command since it's not supposed to return to bat1. Otherwise you have to execute an exit command in bat2.
