ok, here's the problem.

i want 'mA' to be set as a space (as in the thing you put between words).

The problem however, is that if you try this, you get this this:

set /a mA=
(notice the space at the end)

This clears 'mA' from the aspect list thing.

Is there a way around this??

Hi

When entering a character after the = sign Hold down the ALT key and press 32 on the numeric pad

@echo off
set x=
echo %x%%x%%x%%x%%x%%x%%x%%x%%x%12345
