   Because my experience if runs in Admin-CMD will also run in batch. Tried   
   without usebackq and errors.   
      
   "%B"==" " space required can see when run with ...DO (ECHO "%A" "%B")   
      
   Moving to second line does not work in Admin-CMD and only benefit is   
   shorter lines in the script.   
      
   As a further test I ran only that one command in both ADMIN and nonADMIN   
   Batches and they also crashed,   
      
   Did you test your suggestions in Admin-CMD?   
      
   Why does it work in Admin-CMD BUT not in a batch?
