If statement problem
Posted: 13 Jan 2009 01:34
I just figured out that it's some strange with this...
This works as long you don't use spaces or like semicolon etc in the variable. Then the batch crash and I don't know why...
What I'm doing wrong? It feel like I have done this before and got it working...
EDIT: Oh, is screws up when it trying to compare if the variable contains multiple words. Puting " " around the %connect% simply solved the problem, because the connect variable may sometimes contain multiple words depending on what the user put into it. Got to always keep that then... Nervermind.

Code: Select all
@echo off
Set /p connect=Users IP Address/computername:
IF /i %connect%==end (
GOTO END
) ELSE (
echo %connect%
pause
GOTO VERYEND
)
:END
pause
