Did not work...

He is an example of the actual string....

(doc NAME\ &\ NAME2\ NAME3)

If the & was not in the string I have other statements to remove the "(",")", and "\", but with the "&" it messes everything up.

Removing & from string

I used FINDSTR in a FOR loop to pull out a specific string. The string contains an & in it. I am trying to remove it. I tried set q=%q:^&=% and it did not work. Any ideas?
