Create a folder

Create a folder

I would like to create a folder with a script.

This folder goes after the initial path : Y:\GAB\THEME
The script would ask me for the name of the new folder and propose the next one in the form : 129.09 , where 129 is a sequential number from 000 to 999 and 09 is the year.

The new folder will be  : Y:\GAB\TEMA\129.09

********************
Process
1. Ask the name of the folder. By default appears the last one + 1 . If the last one was 128, appears 129
and a point and two last digits of the year . By example 129.09

2. Create the folder in the prefixed path .

Can you help me please  ?
Thanksxx

C:\>mkdir /?
Creates a directory.

MKDIR [drive:]path
MD [drive:]path

If Command Extensions are enabled MKDIR changes as follows:

MKDIR creates any intermediate directories in the path, if needed.
For example, assume \a does not exist then:

    mkdir \a\b\c\d

is the same as:

    mkdir \a
    chdir \a
    mkdir b
    chdir b
    mkdir c
    chdir c
    mkdir d

which is what you would have to type if extensions were disabled.

Understood.

So

@echo off
:begin
set pth=
echo.
set /p pth=Path of folder:
if not exist "%pth%" (
mkdir "%pth%"
goto :PRE
)
echo.
echo ERROR: Folder exists
goto :begin

But How can I recover the name of the path . As I told is in the form : 129.09 . 09 is part of the date. and 129 is a sequential number to remember.

How can I propose this determination ?
With a file, with a database file complement ?

Thanksxx

Well.

Set pth=YOUR PATH HERE
Set num1=001
Set inc=1
Set num2=09
:loop
Md %pth%\%num1%.%num2%
Set /a num1=%num1%+%inc%
If %num1% leq 9 set num1=00%num1% & goto loop
If %num1% leq 99 set num1=0%num1% & goto loop
Goto loop

I'll try and comment.

[Helpmeh]

Ahh wait. Add this as the second-last line.
If %num1% equ 1000 exit

[Esgrimidor]

Ah. I try again because the first time the folders has many zeros. But I'll try to understand and comments.

[Esgrimidor]

A little more than three digits....

many of this size : 000000000000000000000000000000000000000 000000000000000000000000000000000000000 000000000000000000000000000000000000000 000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000000000000000000000000008

I was looking for the screenshots I take but I have not found yet for seeing.

I revised everything and try again and comment.

Thank a lot.

Hmm. Can you just post like the first 5 number sets. I had experience with set /a that it removes preceeding 0s. It may not do that on your computer (I can tell depending on the number sequence I requested)

[Esgrimidor]

I try again tomorrow and give all the possible information I can obtain. I don't know what i am doing bad. But sure finallly goes well.

Basically anything bad with the script is my fault, not yours. I will continue helping you until the problem is solved.
