   That FOR command alone won't work because the ")" character in the %query%   
   variable is treated as the closing parethesis of the set enclosure for the   
   FOR command.   
      
   Unless the `echo %query%` command can be replaced with `echo "%query%"`, one   
   workaround is to move the commandline out of the FOR's set parameter and   
   redirect the output into a file. Then use TYPE for the FOR's set parameter.
