Why does this work? It correctly returns the IP address with dots, but the dot is a delimiter and therefore should be 3 items, no?
for /f “tokens=1,2* delims=.: ” %x in (‘ipconfig’) do if “%x %y”==”IPv4 Address” echo %z

cheers, Paul

Very interesting!

If I replace the 1,2* by 1-3 I get the expected result 192 rather than 192.168.1.234

So the specification of * is the factor, but I have no idea why it gives the Wrong Answer.
I shall inquire…
