|    Problem with file copying in Batch    |

      From: dr.j.r.stockton@gmail.com              In this code, the echo lines are merely for debugging              @echo FOR /F "eol=; tokens=*" %%J IN (ZZZ\ZZZZ.TXT) DO (        FOR /F "eol=; tokens=*" %%J IN (ZZZ\ZZZZ.TXT) DO (       @echo TRYING : Xcopy /F %%J ZZZ\%%J        Xcopy /F %%J ZZZ\%%J       @echo.        )              That works, except that every time Xcopy is called, I get, on-screen,              "Does C:\MYSLIDES\ZZZ\33-xxxiii\11.jpg specify a file name       or directory name on the target       (F = file, D = directory)?"              An answer of F works, but I don't want to be asked; there may be over 100       calls. I've tried XCOPY /?, but cannot recognise a suitable option.              What should I do?              --        (c) John Stockton, near London, UK.
