How do I run this command in a batch file?

This is my batch script so far, but the files do not copy as desired. What is wrong with the script? The command "for /l %f... runs in cmdprompt, but not from a batch file.

echo off
echo Will it run?
pause
start for /l %f in (1,1,10) do copy "C:\Users\1\Desktop\medicine\m2_pics\fa2\Fa003b.jpg" "C:\Users\1\Desktop\medicine\m2_pics\fa2\Fa003b%f.jpg"
pause
exit

Replace %f with %%f. That's it. Variables which you access with %varname in the cmd console always turn to %%varname within a bat.
