for /f %a in (Y:\el.txt) do move %a C:\Users\srinu\Desktop\test

Question

I am run below cmds in commands prompt
for Ex:

for /f %a in (Y:\el.txt) do move %a C:\Users\srinu\Desktop\test

after that i need result txt file
Example:c:\skipped.txt (not moved File Numbers) how to create in cmd
how to write in command prompt

it's the same command, just change %a to %%a in batch file, also you can redirect the output (all of it, not just the skipped ones) to a file using the >> operator so your command becomes for /f %%a in ([SRC]) do move %%a [DIST] >> 'LOG' — tbc, Apr 15, 2015 at 9:30
sentences like 'it didn't work' and 'not working' doesn't give the others any information at all, can you please specify what you used (a sample of code) and what the result/error was — tbc, Apr 15, 2015 at 10:11
@srinuu: What is the command you entered based on what tbc wrote? Did you include [SRC] and [DIST] as-is? — Karan, Apr 15, 2015 at 19:57

here is the command for cmd:

for /f %a in (Y:\el.txt) do move "%a" "C:\Users\srinu\Desktop\test"

in a batch file:

for /f %%a in (Y:\el.txt) do @move "%%a" "C:\Users\srinu\Desktop\test" >> log.txt
