batch file to execute a search

[Jason Carpenter]

I'm trying to write a batch file that executes a google search but I can't
get around the & character. Any Ideas.
start iexplore
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q="$1"+"$2"+"$3"&btnG=Google+Search

Thanks,

J

Maybe try preceding each ampersand with a caret:
