Solve : Command Prompt -- redirect output of program to variable?

1.	Solve : Command Prompt -- redirect output of program to variable?
Answer» I'm trying to PIPE the OUTPUT of a program (a string) into a variable. When I try the below code, the command RUNS but the variable isn't created: Code: [Select]C:\Programlocation\program.exe \| set /p variable= This seems like it should be pretty STRAIGHTFORWARD... Thanks, JWelcome to the CH forums. Try this: Code: [Select]for /f "delims=*" %%1 in ('C:\ProgramLocation\Program.exe') do ( set variable=%%1 ) Good luck
