How can I replace double quotes in a text file using a batch file?<br />
<br />
I've seen a couple of answers pointing to <a href="http://www.batchfiles.co.nr" rel="ugc">http://www.batchfiles.co.nr</a>&nbsp;but the example there doesn't appear to work if the string you are looking to replace is &quot;.<br />
<br />
I thought I could do it by reading the contents of the file into a variable and then using SET, but I can't find out how to read the file into a variable. <br />
<br />
Or can I use a FOR loop which looks at each line in the file as a whole, rather than splitting the line using delimiters?<br />

Thanks,<br />
