   I have a problem I cannot solve:   
      
   ---This one line in an Admin CMD window works:   
   FOR /F "TOKENS=1,2 DELIMS=:" %A IN (F:\_%_NN%NW-B.txt) DO (IF "%B"==" "   
   ECHO %A >> F:\_%_NN%NW-N.txt)   
      
   ---In a batch running as Admin using %% the batch crashes:   
   FOR /F "USEBACKQ TOKENS=1,2 DELIMS=:" %%A IN ("F:\_%_NN%NW-B.txt") DO   
   (IF "%B"==" " ECHO %%A >> F:\_%_NN%NW-N.txt)   
      
   How do I make the batch work?
