Batch file +sync folder

[bob_the_builder]

Hi,

I have a batch file that syncs 2 folders .. The problem is that part sits in a *.bat file and then the rest gets typed into command prompt.

Code:

sync.bat

XCOPY "%1" "%2" /D /I %3
XCOPY "%2" "%1" /D /I %3


Then type into command prompt:

sync C:\test D:\test /S

I have been trying to put all the code into a single batch file so one can double click it and have it perfom the sync.

Does anyone know how this can be done?

Thanks

Bob

Well, you would have to make a recursive folder search to compare the files but that cannot be done in DOS. You will have to use a different language than DOS. Sorry, you won't be able to sync perfectly in DOS.

Not True,
This can be done by adding the /S switch to the end of the command.

If I get to it, I'll add an example.
