How to write the command line input into the command in batch?

Question

I want to run the command

ex.exe property

where 'property' is the text which I first enter from the command line. How to write such batch script?

Answer 1

what you want are command line arguments - e.g. the first one

ex.exe %1

Answer 2

If I understand you correctly, you want a prompt for a variable value. Try something like:

set /p property=Enter Property:
ex.exe %property%
