*.bat uses [code]echo xxxx >> *.*[/code] but *.exe doesnt

[preca1]

Hi, i did one small programe in notepad. i saved it like *.bat and then i converted it with this app to *.exe.
in *.bat app i had

Code: [Select]

echo %n% >>log.log and it worked. for those who dont know, it adds %n% in log.log file everytime i launch my app.
when i had *.bat file it worked, but when i converted it to *.exe these >> stoped work and no log.log file is created (in *.bat file it did).

dont anybody know whats wrong?

my code is similiar to this:

Code: [Select]

@echo off
set /p n=Create directory
mkdir %n%
echo u created %n% directory >>log.log
pauseit makes directory %n% and writes u created %n% directory in log.log file.

in exe works everything but this >> thing

thanks for help. i am on vista but i think it doesnt matter

On this line:

echo u created %n% directory >>log.log

try writing as:

echo u created %n% directory >> log.log

It's just a little thing and the cmd processor could parse this, but maybe the converter can't.

I have yet to see one of these converter programs actually work as promised. They also add load and terminate routines to what was once a simple little text file.

thanks for help, but i am still desperate. i tried it. i even tried to simplify the code and let there only mkdir command,

Code: [Select]

@echo off
set /p n=Create directory
mkdir %n%
pausebut it didnt worked either. and i dont think that there is problem with that set /p n=mkdir, because i have it in another program (also converted) and it works. i dont understand it.
is there is a solution or i am lost?

Some time ago the CH Administrator (aka Nathan) found this converter. It's a large file that can be downloaded here.

Let us know how you make out. For whatever reason converting files seems to be in demand.
