Solve : How to store a user input as a variable??

Answer»

Hello all,

I have RETURNED with yet ANOTHER batch problem. I need to ask the user to "ENTER their name" which I can then store as a %user% variable to later implement in a command.

For example after the user inputs the name, the program can then do:
Code: [Select]cd C:\programfiles\uniquenames\%user%\home
So, I have no idea where to begin. Thanks in advance.Code: [Select]set /p user=Name:

cd C:\programfiles\uniquenames\%user%\home
I think you may have to use "%user%" (with QUOTES) if there are spaces, not sure.That was exactly what I was looking for. You have SAVED me so much time!

Thanks again for all the help!
