Batch For Nest In file and in range

Question

I need help for Find value from text, then compare match in range list condition goto

File 1.txt contains multiple line:

[Software]
App=3

I write batch but stuck

@ECHO ON
FOR /F "TOKENS=2 DELIMS== " %%I IN ('FINDSTR App D:\1.txt') DO
    SET App=%%I
    IF "%App%"=="1" GOTO :1
    IF "%App%"=="2" GOTO :2
    IF "%App%"=="3" GOTO :3

:NOTINRANGE
ECHO Not Found
Exit

:1
ECHO %App%
EXIT

:2
ECHO %App%
EXIT

:3
ECHO %App%
EXIT

If %App% value is not in range [1,2,3], i don't know how to write condition

In your particular example you could do this a couple of different ways because the result of your command is the same as your label names.

You could just execute the goto command directly with the result of FOR variable.

FOR /F "TOKENS=2 DELIMS==" %%I IN ('FINDSTR App D:\1.txt') DO goto %%I

If you really need to test the range of the value you could still accomplish this without all the extra IF comparisons. This assume your app value would never be zero or less than 0.

FOR /F "TOKENS=2 DELIMS==" %%I IN ('FINDSTR App D:\1.txt') DO IF %%I LEQ 3 GOTO %%I
