I am having to process multiple XML files into flat files or a single flat file. I have the XSL done and it works from command line or in the editor. The problem I have encountered is there can be a thousand XML files that need transformed and they all have unique names. I need to run this from command line or automated some how. Is there a way to process several hundred XML files using an XSL without having to know each name specifically and run the command for every single file there.

How about something like this:
for %i in (*.xml) do stylusxslt -in %i -out %~ni.html xml2html.xslt

Thank you very much...can the stylusxslt executable do an append? If so I could output everything to one file.

You can end it with >>file to append.
It works for other stuff as well.

for %i in (*.txt) do type %i >>everything.all
will append every .txt file in the current directory to the
file 'everything.all'. Just make sure you empty the file first!

if exist everything.all del everything.all
for %i in (*.txt) do type %i >>everything.all

And if you put it in a batch file, you've got to double the %'s.
