How to store a user input as a variable?

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!
