I am sorry; I was wrong.

The window was opened before setting the variable and it wasn't able to get the name.

Now everything works fine.

Thanks for your help!

How do you set the variable? Are you sure it is inherited properly into the environment you are running WinSCP from?

Is it a problem with this version?
Is there any other way that I can use it now?

Thank You!

You need to have WinSCP 4.1 beta for that.

I am using WinSCP 4.1 beta only. I have an environment variable "TEST" with the value Test. When I execute the command mkdir %TEST%, it actually creates %TEST% folder. Please suggest.

Below is the console capture.

I want to create a folder with the name specified in the ENV variable and perform "put" operation. How can I read a variable from ENV and include in the script. Please suggest. Thanks!
