How to run program in an r-code library from windows command prompt

I can load character progress from a windows icon and run a program from an r-code library (.pl), but not from a bat file which I need for character scanning.

"C:\Program Files\PROGRESS\bin\_progres.exe" -ld avdb c:\dir\xxxxx -p yyyyy.pl<<zzzzz.r>> -Wa -wpp

The above works fine from an icon, but when I try the same from a bat file, I get the following message:

<< was unexpected at this time

Any Ideas?

Thanks,

Quotes work. Doh!

_progres.exe -ld avdb c:\avdb\ajrosestv -p "avsvc.pl<<avsv50.r>>" -Wa -wpp

Thanks anyways, Joe
