RE: blat within batch script - not running

IMHierO the quotations should be totally removed.

-Skand


    

  IMHO -
  I believe that where you have the quotes in your set commands is OK, but the spaces around the equal signs is not. You 
  show in your email
    > set to = "-to eMail\@MyDomain.com"
    > set f = "-f eMail\@MyDomain.com"
    > set server = "-server smtp.MyDomain.com"

  I would instead code
      Set to=”eMail\@MyDomain.com”
      Set f=”-f eMail\@MyDomain.com”
      Set server=”-server smtp.MyDomain.com”

  A SET command without any parameters will display the contents of all the environment variables so you can check to see if they are set as you wish.

  Good luck
  Ernest

  I think I see the issue with your script file. Try these lines below,
  taking note of where I placed the " character for your SET statements:

  set "to=-to [email protected]"
  set "f=-f [email protected]"
  set "server=-server smtp.MyDomain.com"
  d:\script\blat.exe %TO% %F% %Server% -s "%USERDOMAIN% Restart" -bodyF
  "%USERDOMAIN%-%%g-%%f-%%e.txt" -superdebug -log blat.log
