How can I call a batch file within another batch file?

Question

trying to call a batch file within another batch file the script completes the synchronization of the remote folders but then fails to call the other batch file.

@echo off

"C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\WinSCP.com" ^
/log="C:\Test\TestLog.log" /ini=nul ^
/command ^
"open sftp://test/ -hostkey=""ssh-dss 2048 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx=""" ^
"synchronize remote \\Please\Send\Some\Help /Dir/Test" ^
"exit"

set WINSCP_RESULT=%ERRORLEVEL%
if %WINSCP_RESULT% equ 0 (
echo Success
) else (
echo Error
)

exit /b %WINSCP_RESULT%

CALL movefile

pause

Answer 1

Simply move the call command to be above the exit command or else it will exit before calling.

Script

@echo off

"C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\WinSCP.com" ^
/log="C:\Test\TestLog.log" /ini=nul ^
/command ^
"open sftp://test/ -hostkey=""ssh-dss 2048 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx=""" ^
"synchronize remote \\Please\Send\Some\Help /Dir/Test" ^
"exit"

set WINSCP_RESULT=%ERRORLEVEL%
if %WINSCP_RESULT% equ 0 (
echo Success
) else (
echo Error
)

CALL movefile
pause
exit /b %WINSCP_RESULT%

Note: You will also want to ensure the batch script file being called actually exists so confirm that is the accurate location from the executing batch script command that calls movefile.
