You need to remove the spaces. The spaces are actually part of the variable name.

You can test this right from the cmd prompt.

Code: Select all

H:\mount>set /P servidor_inicial = server_
server_MyServer

H:\mount>echo %servidor_inicial%
%servidor_inicial%

H:\mount>echo %servidor_inicial %
MyServer

H:\mount>

Notice that when I put the space in the variable name it then displays the contents of the variable on the screen.
