I have created a batch script to move files from one folder to another. For some reason, when I issue the commands in a live DOS session, they work, but when I issue the same commands through a batch script, it doesn't work. In the DOS session, I also changed the drives to the local drives, C: and D:. I'm not sure if my syntax is wrong, or if it doesn't like mapped network drives. Below is what my script looks like. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!

@echo on&setlocal ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
:echo %*|fs /c:"Database backed up:"||exit 1
cd\
for %%B in (X:\ABC\*.BAK) do (move %%B Y:\USA Backup)
