Batch file to execute all files in a folder

Question

I need a batch files the launches all files in a given folder (in this case it is c:\macros\day).

I've tried the following, but it doesn't seem to do anything.

for /f %i in ('C:\macros\Day /b') DO command %i

Answer 1

This works from my command line:

for /F "usebackq" %%i in (`dir /b C:\macros\Day\`) DO %%i

as does this:

for %%i in (C:\macros\Day\*) do %%i

Answer 2

You used the incorrect variant of for. simply do (pun intended) for %%i in (c:\macros\Day\*) do %%i

Edit: If you need to run a command on all files: for %%i in (c:\macros\Day\*) do command %%i
