Batch - Echo or Variable Not Working

Question

I have this little batch script:

SET @var = \"GREG\"
ECHO %@var%
PAUSE

When I run it, it prints:

H:\\Dynamics>SET @var = \"G         


        

Answer 1

Try the following (note that there should not be a space between the VAR, =, and GREG).

SET VAR=GREG
ECHO %VAR%
PAUSE

Answer 2

Dont use spaces:

SET @var="GREG"
::instead of SET @var = "GREG"
ECHO %@var%
PAUSE
