And what about if they just press Enter?

If its not 1, 2 or 3 then it loops.Quote from: Helpmeh on August 17, 2009, 05:58:24 AM
If its not 1, 2 or 3 then it loops.

In the IF test, since %T% is (hopefully) a string, if you don't have any "quotes" or .dots. or {spider brackets} etc around the input variable %T% and the comparison value then it will crash if just Enter is PRESSED. Enter is an empty string.

So, if just Enter is pressed -

If %T%==1 GOTO softwaremenu

expands

to

If ==1 GOTO softwaremenu

This will cause an error.

So do it like this

If "%T%"=="1" GOTO softwaremenu

Then if enter is pressed it expands to this

If ""=="1" GOTO softwaremenu



Ahh. Makes sense.
