I am trying to pass variable from VBscript to batch file for further usage. Since this value is a password, I dont want it to be echoed for security reasons!

Code of VBScript: 

```
...
'after the above procedure, password has to be passed to batch file 
WScript.echo password

```

code for batch file:

```
FOR /F "usebackq tokens=*" %%r in (`CSCRIPT "D:\PasswordCreation.vbs"`) DO SET PASSWORD=%%r
ECHO %PASSWORD%
Pause

```

This stores the password in variable PASSWORD but the VBscripts pops out the password because of WScrip.echo password. Can i pass this password Without echoing? Is there some other command for that?
