Here you go...

@ECHO OFF & SETLOCAL 
set /p "ReleaseVersion=Please specify the software release version : "

for /F "tokens=1,2,3 delims=." %%a in ("%ReleaseVersion%") do (
   set Major=%%a
   set Minor=%%b
   set Revision=%%c
)

echo Major: %Major%, Minor: %Minor%, Revision: %Revision%

Please specify the software release version : 1.0.2

Major: 1, Minor: 0, Revision: 2
