Can I pass arguments to executables?

Post by hpkhpk » Tue Sep 12, 2006 8:17 pm

I currently invoke my macro with arguments, for example:

C:\Program Files\MJT Net Ltd\Macro Scheduler\msched.exe\" mymacro /login=mylogin /password=mypassword

If I compile mymacro with the script compiler, will I be able to pass the two arguments to the compiled macro? If so, is the syntax the same? For example:

mymacro.exe /login=mylogin /password=mypassword

Try it. If you have problems, get back with us.

You can also parse whichever parameters are passed to it as to a regular exe. I have some functions written especially for it. Please reply to this topic if you need them.
