Hello, All!
:: or rem can be given to treat a complete line as comment. How to place a
comment on the same line of a valid command?

Just type rem before the valid command in the batch file.

If you rem out a line with a command, the command will not run.

Place the comment on another line.

I think, you mean "a line before": if to type REM at the beginning of the line
with any command -- that will deactivate this line.

And for Brother Brock:

In WinXP you can use ampersand sign to combine the command lines:

dir c: &REM <put your comments here>
