Drive letter from volume name

[irongeek at irongeek.com (Adrian Crenshaw)]

I can't be sure Powershell is on the system.  Tim Medin gave me s slightly
different version of this, which works:

cmd /c for /F %i in ('WMIC logicaldisk where "DriveType=2" list brief ^|
find ":"') do %i\myscript.bat


Thanks,
Adrian
