Automating a command line with increasing file number












0















I am very new to creating batch files.



I have to run a command, with an increasing file number e.g



c:>program.bat -propertyfile "1.property"



Right now, I have to type the command manually, wait 1 minute, then type the command again by increasing the property file # i.e "2.property" "3.property" "4.property" etc....



I want to automate this, and still would like to see the results in the command prompt as it runs.



How can this be accomplished?

          FOR /L %%G IN (1,1,4) DO program.bat -propertyfile "%%G.property"


          Should run your command for files 1.property to 4.property but if you're actually running it for files in a directory rather than a list of integers one of the other FOR constructs might be more appropriate. Perhaps https://ss64.com/nt/for_r.html
