echo "move "\\%pcid%\c$\program files\application\data\*.xml" > "\\server32\c$\scripts\masterbackup.bat ---- ^ remove quote , add waaaaay @ end...................................^.here the syntax echo string > file
where quotes should balanced , need placed around (full-)filename contains spaces (etc.)
note > write data new file, deleting exiting (if any). use >> append existing file.
having said that, command put or add line
move "\\%pcid%\c$\program files\application\data\*.xml" to file "\\server32\c$\scripts\masterbackup.bat"
that doesn't seem particularly rational. shouldn't moveing fileset somewhere , appending that move command batch?
