when i try to drag 48 or more items at a time to a batch file, it gives me a permission error
and when i drag 47 items or less no error occur and the batch file continues its works normally

no permission is required and i just can't know why dragging and dropping to a batch file causes those weired errors.

How long is your line with 47 files?
I assume, it's the line length limit of ~8192 bytes

I believe jeb has the right answer -- I've come across this a couple of times with a similarly unhelpful error.

In vista you got an error message like "Der an einen Systemaufruf übergebene Datenbereich ist zu klein" - "At a sysstem call, the databuffer is too small".
The message is nonsense also in german.
I tested it, and the problems seems to be at a line limit of 2048 characters (the normal line limit is at ~8192).
The "&" seems not to be the problem at this point.

Actually "data buffer is too small" is a pretty accurate description of the problem - much more helpful than "you don't have appropriate permissions", which is total rubbish

thanks for help i found a way to just put all items to drag in a folder
and drag this folder wich contain unlimited number of items to a batch
file,and that is easy to work with though
