Subj : Batch File...

What's wrong with this batch file?  It only appears to grab the first
directory, instead of all subdirs.  Sometimes it doesn't even do that.. f

for %%i in (*.) DO (
cd %%i
del shortlist.bbs
for %%j in (*.zip) DO (
pkunzip -o %%j file_id.diz %temp%
set /p output=<%temp%\file_id.diz
echo %%j     %output%>>shortlist.bbs
)
cd ..
)

I'm sure I missed something obvious, but I can't figure it out.  Can I not
nest for do loops?  This is to grab the first line of file_id.diz files, put
the filename a few spaces, then the description into a file for my ftp server
to display descriptions.  pkunzip and set are working.  It's not looping
though.
