Example : In test.xml, I have

   <head>
    <file name="input">
        <above>
              <tag point="x"/>
        </above>
        <below> 
              <result first="00"/>
        </below>
    </file>
    <file name="output">
        <above> 
              <tag point="y"/> 
        </above>
        <below> 
              <result first="11"/> 
        </below>
    </file>
   </head>

I should read this XML in batch script where i should get value “11” .
This “11” is found inside tag in tag in .

I have to get only the value “11” in the above specified path.

This is an example where in a real scenario there can be different value in place of “11”.

Thanks in advance

    FOR /F tokens^=2^ delims^=^" %%A in ('find "result first=" test.xml') do echo:%%A

    or in command prompt:

    fOR /F tokens^=2^ delims^=^" %A in ('find "result first=" test.xml') do echo:%A

    this will work only if the structure of your file is as this above (specifically the new lines).
    Better use xml startlet http://xmlstar.sourceforge.net/ . More info about the trick with the for – >
