What I would like to do is be able to take a variable with spaces in it and make a file with the name of the variable, as such:

set /p address=Enter the address:
Echo. >> %address%.txt

All it does is copy the first word of
%address% to the filename. I was wondering if you could take out the spaces within the variable, and then maybe do as the following:

Echo. >> "%word1% %word2%.txt"

I would also like this in batch only if possible.

EDIT: Got it to work.
echo. >> "%address%".txt

Then if you want it in a different directory, first cd to the directory of the folder "%address%".txt is located.
copy "%address%".txt "your\new\location"

This can be done using Visual Basic scripting:

1.Create a batch file with the following line:
wscript string.vbs

2.Create a new txt file:
string.txt

3.Rename string.txt to string.vbs

4.Enter the following lines in the vbs file:

Dim x
Dim s
x=inputbox("enter address:")
s = replace(x," ","")
x=s+".txt"
Msgbox(x)

5. Execute the batch file:
x will be the filename adress.txt

If you enter 'my new documents' when prompted for address:
x will be mynewdocuments.txt

Well I originally thought I couldn't get spaces within a filename, so then I wanted to try getting rid of the spaces.
Also, Visual Basic is a lil confusing to me XP
