Hello
Is the functionality I describe below possible using Batch Windows Scripting? And if so how I can I edit my code to perform this functionality?
I am attempting to remove a multiline string from a file. The multiline string comes from another file and is read into a Batch variable. I then read the target file and search for this multiline string, if it exists I want to delete it from the target file.
My code below is unable to remove the multiline string from the target file. It can successfully read the input file. Can you help me edit my script to search for and remove a multiline string from a file?
Essentially I want my script to remove the following bold text from a file:

C++:
@echo off &setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
Set replace=
Set target=
Set infile=usermenuTest1.4d
Set outfile=usermenuTest2.4d
Rem Read file and store all contents in string
for /f "delims=" %%i in (%infile%) do set "target=!target! %%i"
echo %target%
Rem Remove the target string from outfile
@echo off & setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
for /f "tokens=1,* delims=¶" %%A in ( 'type "%outfile%"') do SET "string=%%A"
SET "modified=!string:%target%=%replace%!"
(echo(%modified%)>> "%outfile%"
ECHO.
