Hi there eternity

welcome to the Computer Hope Forums.  I hope you become a regular here and share your information with others.

Coming to your problem...
that was a tough one (mostly logical errors from me though ).

First I suggest reading:
1. how to use the for command.

Code: [Select]

for /?
should suffice.  OR go here.  (this is the same thing, but better look )

2. about delayed expansion

Now,
I came up with the following code.  But to give you a background:
testtxt.txt contains these lines:
-txt1.txt
-txt2.txt
-txt3.txt

and the current folder has these files:
-test.bat
-texttxt.txt
-txt1.txt
-txt2.txt
-txt3.txt

Now, test.bat has this code:

Code: [Select]

@ECHO off

SETLOCAL EnableDelayedExpansion

FOR /F %%a IN (testtxt.txt) DO (
 SET name=%%~na
 MD !name!
 COPY %%~nxa !name!
)

You may use the XCOPY command instead of COPY, it has more functionality.  MOVE is unstable or something, but it is not usually recommended in these forums .
Of course, adapt the code as you need it exactly.

Hope all this helped

Why?   Why a folder for each file?
