Batch variable name in a variable

Comment:

Dear all, I am having a trouble. I try to use the content of a variable as the name of a variable, in a loop. When I do the following outside a loop, it works : SET VAR_1=DONNEE SET ITR=VAR SET ACC=%ITR%_1 echo %ACC% >> access.log echo !%ACC%! >> access.log The last line actually prints out the content of VAR_1. But when I try to put it into a loop it fails since I can not use the '%' character. FOR /D %%g IN (*) DO ( SET BROL=%%g SET TMP_SCH=!BROL!_SCH SET TMP_USR=!BROL!_USR SET TMP_PWD=!BROL!_PWD echo !!TMP_PWD!! >> access.log ) The last line prints out the name the variable and not its content. Does anyone have an idea to help me solve this problem ? Best regards
