External exclude file
-
Hello,
I’ve been making these batch files for my clients, and I need to do “cool stuff” in the exclude file. What sort of lines can I put in my file? Here is what I have now, the last line doesn’t do anything…—start noLawoffice.txt—
*.jpg
*.zip
.pdf
.tif
clients*.
"Bankruptcy Stuff*."
—end—command line switchs:
pacomp -P -r -c2 -x@mab_noLawoffice.txt “c:\backup\lawoffice_%mydate%.zip” “z:\law office*.*”Does this have something to do with the long file name? thanks,

for the exclusion file:
1. do not put quotes in the file, even for long file names, or files names with spaces
2. put the full path to the folder–-------------mab_clients.bat---------------
@echo offecho “z:\law office\clients*.* --> c:\backup\clients_(date).zip”
echo excluding: jpg, zip, pdf, tif, close casesFOR /F "tokens=1-4 delims=/ " %%I IN (‘DATE /t’) DO SET mydate=%%L-%%J-%%K
PATH “C:\backup\bin”
pacomp -P -r -c2 -x@mab_noClients.txt “c:\backup\clients_%mydate%.zip” “z:\law office\clients*.*”echo all done!
–-------------end------------------------------mab_noClients.txt---------------
*.jpg
*.zip
*.pdf
.tif
Z:\law office\clients\closed cases*.
---------------end--------------- -
Hello!
Yes, do need for quote-marks since every line means only one parameters, so it is easy to parse.

We have added one more check for next version (4.00 BETA 2) - now even if you use quotes it will work.
