Hi, I'm sorry about not being clear enough. You must manually edit the "call_convert.bat" by adding the missing parts, that is "call convert.bat " in the beginning of each row, and target name at the end of the row. Redirecting the file list to batch file prototype is only to help you in creating the working launching bat-file including all your shapefiles. I suggest you to make first make manually a launch file with two or three rows only and test with that. When you see that it works you can put all your shapefiles on the list. Regards, -Jukka-

Like this convert.bat ======== ogr2ogr [-all fixed parameters like -s_srs and -t_srs here] %1 %2 call_convert.bat =========== call convert.bat destination_1 source_1 call convert.bat destination_2 source_2 call convert.bat destination_3 source_3 etc. Conversion is started by running "call_convert.bat", and "destination_1" and "source_1" will be treated as %1 and %2 by the "convert.bat ", respectively. To start with call_conver.bat you can first insert all your shapefiles there by command dir /b *.shp >call_convert.bat dir /b /s puts there all shapefiles from subdirectories as well. This may be a brutal way but it has some advantages. For example you can add some extra commands to "convert.bat" to be executed after each conversion. This way I use to make log files with time stamps about raster file batch conversions.

Sorry for my short last response though. This should execute ogr2ogr.exe <filename> -init=epsg:4326 -init=world:CH1903 For each .shp file you have. What is the error you receive? Perhaps the ogr2ogr.exe isn't in the same folder? -- Jelmer Baas
