Its just a series of commands you want to perform. For example, if you want to do something and then shutdown your machine. Take an example you want to run a particular program at particular time. Just create a .bat file and schedule at that time.

You can do a lot of stuff with bat files. I use them to schedule things. Like I scheduled it to dial a connection at 2:30 in the night and then run Bittorent to start downloading files(downloading is free after 2:30)
also made a program to show a scary picture , then shutdown the computer saying it has been bewitched an the person would die in minutes, placed this in a batch file and Ran this using Bluetooth Remote control when a friend was using my lappy.

.BAT or .CMD or executables and time savers for system administrators. When i say time savers means you can schedule these files which are actually task which admin wana do on daily basis. For e.g. to take a backup everyday, logon script, logoff script, etc.. Have a look at this site http://labmice.techtarget.com. This site is having Scripting section which have good tutorials.
