Since you haven't said what operating system you are using it is hard to give specifics.

Windows 2K/XP has a more enchanced batch file language compared to DOS/9x/Me.

I suggest you look up the help on the following commands to get you started

FOR
IF
SET
CALL
SETLOCAL

you can do this by calling them with the /? switch on the command line e.g.

FOR /?

Typeing HELP on the command line will give you a list of all available commands.

Otherwise, of course, there is always the option of Googling for tutorial pages.
