11-06-2008

I've a batch file and a ps1 script

Test1.bat
powershell somescripts.ps1
robocopy c:\ d:\ <filename.txt>

Somescripts.ps1
$filename = "abc.txt"

After ps1 completes, i wish to pass the $filename abc.txt *outside* to
robocopy command . Note that abc.txt was created in c:\ drive

How do i do that ? Must i use process.start method in the script ?
