This is a little irritating, I am trying to run a command line application from a .bat file, but one of the arguments has a % in it, the problem is, msdos sees % in a .bat file as a special character and assumes im trying to use a variable rather than a '%' so the application is failing to do what its supposed to. Can anyone explain to me how to get a .bat file to use a % as a % ? line this - app -setting output%d.bmp what the bat file is running is - app -setting outputd.bmp I NEED to be able to use the %d. -=-=- Check out my excellent homepage!
