Vista - Call powershell script via Batch-File

Hi everyone,

i wrote a script to sign my powershell scripts. When I call the sign
script with a file to sign any file, the script works fine. But when I
create a batch file to call the powershell script with a file to sign,
I get the error message that no file name was given.

Batch-File:
..\SignFile.ps1 %1%

SignFile.ps1:
Param
(
[string] $File
)
$str = "Filename: " + $File
Write-Output $str
....

How have I to call the powershell script within my batch file to work
as I expect?

Thanks for the help,
Reiner

Two things

1) you have to put powershell in front of the PS script name
powershell c:\pathtoscript\SingFile.ps1

2) you dont need trailing % on %1%
