Welcome on Stackoverflow. What have you tried? Did something almost work? What error message do you get? Is the text in a file or is it the output of a program?Thomas Weller– Thomas Weller2014-05-13 14:00:58 +00:00Commented May 13, 2014 at 14:00

This is the command I used to get the version and its value. FOR /F "tokens=* delims= " %%a IN ('"wmic product where "Name like 'Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable'" get version"') do echo "%%%a"JSP– JSP2014-05-13 14:09:02 +00:00Commented May 13, 2014 at 14:09

@ECHO OFF
SETLOCAL
SET "fine="9.0.56336"
ECHO %fine%
SET "fine=%fine:"=%"
ECHO %fine%
FOR /f "delims=." %%a IN ("%fine%") DO SET "fine=%%a"
ECHO %fine%
GOTO :EOF
Your ...set fine="%%%a" echo fine:%fine%
should be on two separate lines
...set fine="%%a"
echo fine:%fine%
and there should be two, not three %s
This does set fine to the last line (I believe - haven't got the same installation, so I can't test it)
If you indeed have "9.0.56336 as your data content, then the above processing should get the 9.

Hi Magoo, your code is working fine , but here my trouble is after executing the below line version is not set to the fine variable. for /f "tokens=3 delims=." %%a in ('wmic product where "Name like 'Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable'" get Version') do set fine="%%a"
JSP
Its setting some junk value "56336 ".

use
tokens=1 and it should get the 9

Can't reproduce your problem. Try editing-in the exact response you are seeing ...do set fine="%%a" [new line] ECHO fine:%fine% BTW -
set fine="%%a" and set "fine=%%a are vastly different. If %%a contains the string something then the first will set fine to the value "something" whereas the second will set fine to something - the first is quoted, the second, not.
