Install hotfixes executables

Hello,

I am currently using the following batch file to silently install microsoft hotfixes.

%~d0
pushd "\Software\Unattended\Install\Updates\XP\"
for /f "delims=" %%a IN ('dir *.exe /b') do "%%a" /q /n /z 
popd

EXIT

Is there a way for this batch file to work, regardless of the path? Because I keep a copy on my USB stick, and one
on a file server (to use on the network) and every time I make a change on either one and re-syncronize, one of
them stops working because of the path.

Thanks

Maybe this will do:

%~d0

if exist "\Software\Unattended\Install\Updates\XP\" (
set folder="\Software\Unattended\Install\Updates\XP\")

if exist "\usbdisk\Software\Unattended\Install\Updates\XP\" (
set folder="\usbdisk\Software\Unattended\Install\Updates\XP\")

pushd %folder%
for /f "delims=" %%a IN ('dir *.exe /b') do "%%a" /q /n /z 
popd

EXIT

Read File and Use in Batch

I want to have a batch file open a file that I am passing to it as %1, read the data inside that file and use that
later in the batch file.

At the command prompt I am typing this:

c:\>email_po.bat C:\Edi\Prod\xlate\i\52122\userexit

The userexit file only has this data in it:

PO_NUMBER=123456

I want to use the value of the PO_NUMBER in %2 in the batch file below:

c:\edisendmail.exe -r ryan.johnson@... -s "PO %2 Received" -t
"PO %2 Received"

So the subject of my email would read:

"PO 123456 Received"

How can I have the batch file get the valued after "PO_NUMBER=" so it can be used in my email string?

Thanks,

Ryan Johnson

This is one way:

 <at> echo off
set /p var=<"C:\Edi\Prod\xlate\i\52122\userexit"
