What's Up Homeboys?

But seriously, I'm trying to take a word from a text file and put it into a variable so I can call it later on. After alot of googling I came across a resource kit 2000 tool called 'Setx' However there isn't a lot of syntax help. Can anyone see what's going wrong here?

SETX Var -f txt.txt -a 1,2

I've tried then echoing %Var% but it just echos ' %Var% '

Thanks Bye!

** OK, So if you do a simple script with this like

setx TEXT=CONTENTS

Then you have to restart cmd before echoing it works. But if you use my code in the first paragraph, You have to restart before it works, What the F prompt?
