Execute Program Parameters

KnightWare

Any way to EXECUTE PROGRAM from a process and pass parameters? Want to launch a batch (CMD) file and pass parameters from BO. Also, does the Execute Program understand UNC file paths?

I have used something like the following:

EXECUTE PROGRAM 'C:\FullPath\commandFile.cmd '+BO.attr1+' '+BO.attr2

Inside the command file the parameters are referenced as %1 and %2

Anything I put after 'C:\FullPath\commandFile.cmd ' results in syntax error for action'

Actually its the double quotes. I need to surround the BO's with double-quotes,

KnightWare

I found by setting a System Settings attribute to a quote, you can concatenate on the Action Line.

SystemSetting.DQ = "

Action 1 =
EXECUTE PROGRAM '\Server\Folder\Batch.CMD' + SystemSettings.DQ + BO.Attribute1 + SystemSettings.DQ
