Writing Batch Files

See Also

In batch files and macros, there are many reasons to change the way that the command line interacts with the user. Some examples are as follows:

• Disable Input — You can disable input so that batch files can run undisturbed, without stopping to wait for user input.
  
  
• Redirect Output — You can redirect program output to a file.
  
  
• Use Command Line Exit Codes — You can use VSS exit codes to test for successful batch file completion.
