I finally cracked it.

After much messing around trying different things, I moved the quotation marks on the script file reference, and hey presto!

FOR %%f in (c:\"ACAD Batch"\Drgs\*.dwg) do start /wait c:\"Program Files"\Autodesk\"AutoCAD 2012 - English"\acad.exe "%%f" /b "c:\ACAD Batch\Scripts\Change_Project_Title.scr"

It now works a treat now.

Thank you so much for bat file. I updated the script to work with the 2015 version of AutoCAD. I had 500+ drawing to modify and this worked perfectly!

First Step:
Open AutoCAD and set NEWTABMODE system variable to 0. This will stop the new tab screen from appearing.

Second Step:

FOR %%f in ("c:\Location of drawings\*.dwg") do start /wait c:\"Program Files"\Autodesk\"AutoCAD 2015"\acad.exe "%%f" /b "c:\Location of script\Name of script.scr"

You much change the location of script, location of drawings and name of script!
