I want to fetch Windows Hotfix listing with some format, whose output can be separated with some delimiter. so far I found a wmic command which gives me a desired output but the problem is the \s
delimiter is not going to work here. Is there a way I can place some ,
or anyother character, which I can later use in java program to get individual columns?
Command
wmic qfe get caption,csname,description,hotfixid,installedby,installedon
Output
Caption CSName Description HotFixID InstalledBy InstalledOn

Update
I am trying
for /f "tokens=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11" %g in ('wmic qfe get caption,csname,description,fixcomments,hotfixid,installdate,installedby,installedon,name,servicepackineffect,status') do @echo %g,%h,%i,%j,%k,%l,%m,%n,%o,%p
but it gives me invalid GET Expression

Invalid GET Expression.
What is the problem here? This might solve the problem for me .
