Can NT scripting do multiple commands per FOR loop

[Tison]

Can I do this ;

set LST=A B C D
for %%A in (%LST%)
do
echo "Checking %%A...'
if exist %%A echo "Yes"
if not exist %%A echo "Not"

Is there a line continuation char in NT script ?

Not sure, I'd try it and see.

If it doesn't handle multi-line FOR loops, try

for %%A in (%LST%) do call somefile.bat

and call a batch file that has all the commands in it you want to process. MCSE NT4/W2K
