Hi guys,

Need help. I have a list of files (post.txt) to be search
in temporary.log. Any ideas how can I pipe the output or
copied the output in the textfile. I created this
batchfile but it didn't work. I think missed something
please help.

for /f "tokens=*" %%a in (e:\temp\post.txt) do findstr /i %
%a e:\temp\temporary.log

thanks in advance.

if EXIST e:\temp\myoutput.txt del e:\temp\myoutput.txt
for /f "tokens=*" %%a in (e:\temp\post.txt) do findstr /i %%a
e:\temp\temporary.log >> e:\temp\myoutput.txt

No need to loop with for. Use the /G: option of findstr. This should be
much faster and give a sorted result.

findstr /G:e:\temp\post.txt e:\temptemporaray.log

findstr /G:e:\temp\post.txt e:\temptemporaray.log
