Solve : Executable command line output into variable?

1.	Solve : Executable command line output into variable?
Answer» Hi. After looking around on the forum I have been unable to find an EFFICIENT WAY of getting a COMMAND line string returned from an executable, that is RUN within a batch file, into an environmental variable of the same batch file. Can any one please provide me with a way of doing this? THANKS in advance. you use the for loop to get the executable string result. check for/? for more information also , to set the environment variable, eg PATH, you use set. eg set PATH=%PATH%;%result%Thank you for that. I found this below seems to do the job. FOR /F %%A IN ('mycommand.exe') DO set myvar=%%A
