Hi!,
I am having some problems loading a txt file line by line and then being able to save all that information into a variable. i have tried this

FOR /F %%i IN (log.txt) DO ECHO %%i

but it only displays text before an space. The text inside log.txt has spaces so i would like to desplay the full length of text.

Default delimiters are space and tab as discribed in the help text of FOR.

FOR /F "delims=" %%i IN (log.txt) DO ECHO %%i

However, blank lines are still skipped. Lines beginning with a semicolon, too.
What about ...

type "log.txt"
