Where to download Choice ?

I previously downloaded the Batch Choice command. But it somehow
disappeared from my harddisk. Can somebody tell me where I can
download it ?

FYI. I have a hard time looking for it on the internet as Choice is
such a command word.

Thanks very very much in advance.

choice.exe is a DOS/Win9x command. You should use the
equivalent Win2000 command. Here is how it works:

@echo off
set /p name=Please enter your name:
echo Hello, %name%

Understand but I have a number of batch programs which I need this
choice. So I need to download it urgently. With time, I'll move to
the new Win2000 command. Thanks for your help !

Found it ! Thanks for the tip. Search for win98 instead of 2000/
xp. before that, whenever I see win98/85/dos, I just skip over it !

Thanks again.

Check Google.

Experience tells me that deferring this type of trivial job
usually results in a panic call later on. Best to deal with
it straight away, considering that it will only take a few
minutes to resolve.

Yes but I need to finish my office work first. So when I have more
time, I will migrate. I'm thinking of using what you taught me to
write a Choice.bat. So my existing batch can still use a choice
command. This would help to lessen the burden in migrating.
