I know how to set the value to a variable ( set %26lt;name%26gt;=value) In this case I am creating a variable to point toward a directory. Now in the shell (xp) how do i switch to the directory using the variable I created? I tried cd %26lt;name%26gt; or chdir %26lt;name%26gt; and neither work, what am I doing wrong?|||You need to put %s around your environment variable. For example...
set myFavoriteDir=c:\windows
cd %myFavoriteDir%
