If you want the log file to be renamed with the Exit Code, you're 
going to need to determine the errorlevel (exit code) returned by 
Xxcopy. You can do this with "IF ERRORLEVEL n" tests as stated by 
others or by reading the Exit Code from the log file. Below is a 
batch file (xxlogren.bat) which will determine the name of the most 
recent log file, scan the log file to extract the Exit Code then 
rename the log file with the Exit Code appended to the name. It uses 
the free utility program LMOD.COM (http://home.mnet-
online.de/horst.muc/) to do the file parsing. You would use this like 
the following:

xxcopy f:\ g:\ /clone /oNc:\1bu\/$yyyy-mm-dd_$CopyFtoG.log /yy
call xxlogren c:\1bu *CopyFtoG.log
xxcopy e:\ f:\ /clone /oNc:\1bu\/$yyyy-mm-dd_$CopyEtoF.log /yy
call xxlogren c:\1bu *CopyEtoF.log
xxcopy d:\ e:\ /clone /oNc:\1bu\/$yyyy-mm-dd_$CopyDtoE.log /yy
call xxlogren c:\1bu *CopyDtoE.log
