Windows 10: Help a rusty tech with batch file?

So I got it working the way I want but it keeps adding Echo off to the top of the output files. How do I stop this?

www.Pastebin.com/Pd3BHGg3

SETLOCAL EnableDelayedExpansion

@Echo off

for /f "tokens=*" %%f IN (C:\neo.txt) do (

SET MyVar=%%f set MyVar=!MyVar: =! echo >"!MyVar!.cfg" echo ^<?xml version="1.0"?^> >>"!MyVar!.cfg" echo ^<system name="!MyVar!"^> >>"!MyVar!.cfg"

)

Thanks for your time

An alternative to fixing the code would be to read each file in the dir and skip the first line and output the file again.

I have made a few batch files and being rusty I have to look up all the commands and how to use them again. It has put a real damper on me.

Don't use batch files very much but one I find useful is for creating a list of files in a directory.
Just copy the text below into Notepad and save as Filelist.bat

dir /a /-p /o:gen >filelist.txt

When you run it from a folder it will create a Filelist.txt file,in the same folder, that lists all the files in that folder.Useful when you are too lazy to type all the files out yourself.

I think you can just use the "Call" command in your batch file.
The batch file should delay execution until the call command finishes.

Call myprogram.exe
Call mysecondprogram.exe

Haven't done much batch coding lately *Smile
