IF condition is completly ignored, but why?

[jeb]

The problem exists for all of the = variables. The only way I have gotten any of them to work is with quotes. No other character(s) seem to work. Very odd

The quotes are not necessary.

A simple caret do the job

Code: Select all

if !^=exitCode!==00000000 echo OK
if !str:the^=It! == testIt

Ok they are not necessary, but they do help
Without quotes or escape the command fails.
