Dear brothers, I'm a novice and want to ask how to read the information in a text file line by line in batch processing and treat it as a variable? For example, the content of file a.txt is three lines, namely "123", "456", "789". How to read them one by one and assign them to three variables A, B, C? That is, A = "123", B = "456", C = "789"?

for /f "tokens=*" %%i in (a.txt) do (set /a A=123&set /a B=456&set /a C=789)

for /f "delims=: tokens=1,2" %i in ('"findstr /n . a.txt"') do set %i=%j

If you want to fully achieve the effect the owner wants, personally, I think it is best to enable extended environment variables and then set automatic increment in the for to achieve the effect; in addition, you can directly use the if statement in the for to implement, the disadvantage is that the code is relatively redundant and the readability is not very good; in addition, you can use goto loop, each time use set /p var=<a.txt to read, and then filter out the read part in a.txt, the disadvantage is that the execution efficiency is very low and the fault tolerance is very poor.

In this way, it seems that it will take some effort to achieve the owner's purpose, but it is not the case. If you are proficient in various commands, you can also achieve the purpose flexibly by using the characteristics of various commands. For example, the findstr command and the find command have a /n parameter, which can add line numbers in front of each line of the displayed search results. Using this line number, maybe we can achieve our requirements. The sample code is as follows:

for /f "delims=: tokens=1,2" %i in ('"findstr /n . a.txt"') do set %i=%j

Note that when running the above code in a batch file, you need to change %i to %%i and %j to %%j first.

Key points explanation:
1. The line number format displayed by findstr is " line number: content ", and the format of find is " content", so use colon ":" to separate in delims.
2. The English half-width period "." after findstr matches all characters in a.txt.
3. If you need to define variables to a, you can add a sentence set a=%1% later, and so on.

Can you annotate it on the 2nd floor? I'm a newbie and don't understand it very well. Thanks in advance.

Can the third floor provide the code? I can't understand it.

The question is how can I reference the value of ABC? For example, how to add the value of ABC to B.TXT, how to achieve it?

echo %1% >>b.txt
echo %2% >>b.txt
echo %3% >>b.txt

Floor 7, do you mean adding your code to the code of Floor 2, that is:
for /f "tokens=*" %%i in (a.txt) do (set /a A=123&set /a B=456&set /a C=789)
echo %1% >>b.txt
echo %2% >>b.txt
echo %3% >>b.txt

But the result is that the content in b.txt is:
…… (This part is the original content in b.txt)
ECHO is on.
ECHO is on.
ECHO is on.

But the result I want is:
…… (This part is the original content in b.txt)
123
456
789

How to do it?

Floor 7, thank you. I've figured it out. It can be like this:
for /f "tokens=*" %%i in (a.txt) do (echo %%i >> b.txt)

Thank you all very much

Although I can use this sentence to achieve the goal, I don't fully understand this command. Can someone annotate it for me? Thanks a lot.

I mainly don't understand "/F "taken=*", which big brother is willing to help me

Depressed, it turned out that it was just to append, not to assign to a variable.
The landlord tells you a simpler one:
type a.txt >>b.txt

It's to assign a value to the variable. My purpose is to reference the variable.

The code on floor 3 doesn't seem to run. I tried it on WIN2003.

1,How do you reference variables A, B, and C respectively after you executed the line for /f "tokens=*" %%i in (a.txt) do (echo %%i >> b.txt)?
2,My code is clearly written below. When running in a batch processing, you need to make modifications. That's just for running in the command line. After running, you can check whether the variables are correctly referenced by echoing %1% %2% %3%.
3,The code has been tested and is indeed executable.
