my batch file requesting user input does not work

Please help.  I am using the set command in a batch file and it displays the window but does not do anything but go off the screen after a selection is entered.  Please help...

Very hard to advise without you posting your code.  See here:

I tried the above and I get the same results.  When I make a selection it just blanks off my screen and does not do anything.  I even tried the test print script that is posted here and I get the same results.

Thanks for any and all of your help.  My file is posted here...
