Batch File If contains

Comment:

Hello, I want the user of my Batch File to type in a sentence, and if it contains a 'keyword' i want them to be directed to a section of the batch file. Thing is, I'm currently using: if '%input%'=='keyword' goto keyword and at the bottom i have (to be sure): goto %input% Using this, the keyword has to be at the beginning of the sentence. So, if the keyword is 'made', then i would work if the user typed 'made', but not if they typed 'who made you'. Is there a way for the keyword to be anywhere in the sentence?
