How to read the properties in a dos file

[dossing]

I do have a set of properties in the file, which needs to be made used in my .bat file.

Say my data.properties file contains

key1=value1
key2=value2

How can I access these values in my .bat file.

Advance thanks for the help.

I'm guessing the commands are:
set key1=value1
set key2=value2

If so, you can use them with the call command.

Code: [Select]

call C:\documents and settings\%username%\Desktop\keys.bat
Try that and see if it works or not.
