If Statement for Text Not Working
Posted: 02 Mar 2020 09:22
Hello,
I'm trying to perform certain actions based upon the last character of a string. In my example below, the first if statement is never entered and I'm at a loss as to why. The code for getting the last character of a string I took from this website. Anybody have any thoughts?
Output:
C:\test
t
Second if statement entered
Press any key to continue . . .

set tempstr=t
if "%tempstr%" == "t" (
