    The document discusses batch files in DOS operating systems. It defines batch files as files containing sequences of DOS commands that can be executed by typing the batch file's name. It describes how to create batch files using the DOS editor, word processors, or copy con command, and that they must have a .BAT extension and start each statement with a valid DOS command. It also explains that batch files can be executed by typing their name at the DOS prompt, and DOS will read and run the commands line-by-line, including special batch processing commands like CALL, ECHO, GOTO, IF, CHOICE, and REM.

    OBJECTIVES:

    On completion of this period , you will be able to


    know:

     BATCH FILES
     CREATION OF BATCH FILES
     EXECUTING THE BATCH FILES

    CCP105.33 2
    BATCH FILES
     You may often find yourself repeatedly typing the
    same sequence of commands to perform some
    common task.

     With MS-DOS you can put this command


    sequence into a special file called a batch file and
    then run the whole sequence of commands by
    simply typing the name of the batch file.

     This process is known as ‘BATCH


    PROCESSING’.
    CCP105.33 3
    We can Use Batch Files to…

     Use a single command to execute a series of a


    commands.

     Create alternative name for the commands.

     To call another batch file from one batch file.

     Execute the set of commands each time you start your


    computer

    CCP105.33 4
    CREATION OF BATCH FILES
    Batch file can be created with
     DOS editor
     Word Processor
     Copy Con Command.

    Limitations while creating a Batch File:


     It must have an extension BAT.
     Every statement should start with a valid DOS Command.
     All the other limitations of creating a file in DOS apply.

    CCP105.33 5
    EXECUTING THE BATCH FILES

     Can be executed by simply typing it’s name at the DOS


    Prompt.

     Dos will read the Batch file line by line and Executes it line by
    line.

     Apart from the regular DOS Internal and External Commands,


    there are some special BATCH PROCESSING COMMANDS
    which can be used exclusively in the BATCH files.

    CCP105.33 6
    They are…

    1. CALL 2. ECHO 3.GOTO

    4. IF 5.IF EXIST 6.REM

    7. CHOICE
