bat choices

[blighter]

hi all,

i'm trying to make a BAT file that will prompt the user to enter some text to use a directory.
i.e.
when the BAT loads, it asks the user to input a directory, then to input a filename, then i need to to, for example, encode a video...

is this possible?

thanks

Would be easier to either write it in vb or vbscript and then call it from the bat file.

this is the script so u can see what i'm trying to do:


@title x Pack Script
@Echo Off
@color 03
set release=<<release name>>
set nandub=<<directory 1>>
set encode=<<directory 2>>
set pre=<<directory 3>>
set root=<<directory 4>>
