PS C:\dropit\

@echo off set passwd=mypassword for /F "tokens=*" %%A in (pcpserverlist.txt) do call :processline %%A pause goto :eof :processline set pcpserver=%1 sqlplus myusername/%passwd%@"(DESCRIPTION =(ADDRESS_LIST =(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(Host = %pcpserver%.company.com)(Port = port)))(CONNECT_DATA =(sid = sidname)))" < plsqlscript.sql > %pcpserver%.txt goto :eof :eof all the server name need to be saved in the file  pcpserverlist.txt, each server take 1 line
