Question please.

ok so i ve learned batch the best i can from home and im far from being an expert.
but i have a little problem when writing a script...
when i put in a set /p command i want to have a %symbol% there always at the end of the line.
i want to put in a space instead so i can just set /p command=Abc%space% as my final symbol
right now iam useing
set space=" "
set space=%space:~1,1%
to do that job but my program crashes when i try it so right now iam useing a %symbol% instead wich works fine....
but for the set /p command i just want to enter a spacebar at the end of the line.
and read that ( the %space% )
is this possible?

Not going to read that much code to see if you have other syntax errors but if you want a space at the end of your SET /P prompt string then use quotes.

Code: Select all

set /p "var=Space after "
