Viper999 Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Goodmorning. I am having trouble assining the result of a funtion to a variable in a batch file. I am using compname.exe to generate a computername(compname.exe /d ?s) I want to assign this to a variable so it can be used with sysprep and the UserData section. Here is what I haveSet strComputername = compname.exe /d ?secho Computername ="%strComputername%" > sysprep2.infLater the sysprep2.inf will be combined using the copy command, but I need this problem resolved. Thanks in advance for any help you provide it is greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gogol Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 You can use ...set "cmd=compname /d ?s"for /f "Tokens=1*" %%a in ('%CMD%') do set strComputername=%%aecho Computername ="%strComputername%" > sysprep2.infHTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
