The concept behind "each file in its own variable" is called _array_. See this post: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10166386/arrays-linked-lists-and-other-data-structures-in-cmd-exe-batch-script/10167990#10167990 – Aacini Jun 03 '13 at 22:33

try this:
@echo off &setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
set /a counter=0
for %%i in (systemlogs.txt projects.bat) do (
set /a counter+=1
set "file!counter!=%%i"
)
set "file"
..output is:
file1=systemlogs.txt
file2=projects.bat

Something like this should work:
@echo off
setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
cd /d "C:\some\folder"
set a=0
for %%f in (*) do (
set /a a+=1
set "file!a!=%%~ff"
)
set b=0
for /d %%d in (*) do (
set /a b+=1
set "folder!b!=%%~fd"
)
for /l %%i in (1,1,%a%) do echo %%i: !file%%i!
for /l %%i in (1,1,%b%) do echo %%i: !folder%%i!
endlocal

2You don't need the `call` in `call set file!a!=%%~ff` in case of delayed expansion. – Endoro Jun 03 '13 at 22:13

Can you please tell me how i only get the file names and not the full path and file name – Lucas Szaron Jun 06 '13 at 10:58

Do you want the folder names in `file##` variables as well, or do you want a separate set of variables (e.g. `folder##`)? – Ansgar Wiechers Aug 01 '13 at 09:10

Then simply run a second loop for folders. See updated answer. – Ansgar Wiechers Aug 07 '13 at 19:45
