  • shellexecute .exe file with parameters

    From timepro timesheet@21:1/5 to All on Fri Nov 18 14:52:58 2022
    what is the syntax/command to shellexecute an .exe file with parameters

    WWWEINVOICE=WEBSITENAM
    UID=THEUSENAME
    PSW=THEPASWORD
    ShellExecute( 0, 0, WWWEINVOICE UID PSW, 0 ,0,1) does not execute.
    nor does: ShellExecute( 0, 0, WWWEINVOICE, [UID PSW], 0 ,0,1)
    nor does: WWWEINVOICE=WEBSITENAME +spac(1)+ UID +SPAC(1)+PSW
    ShellExecute( 0, 0, &WWWEINVOICE, 0 ,0,1)

    thank you

    I don't think you can use ShellExecute() for that. You can open an URL
    but you can't pass userid and password to it like it was an executable.
    If your website supports it, you can use the question mark/ampersand
    syntax. As an example:

    http://www.mysite.com?myuser=abcd&mypasw=efgh

    thanks emg:

    WWWEINVOICE is just the name of the .EXE file to be run. (it is not an URL).

    e.g.
    WWWEINVOICE=DISKNAME()+':\MY_TAX\'+GSTPAIDSUBFOLDER+'\MYTAX.EXE' UID='ABC123_UCODE19e'
    PSW='ABC_@#15y'
    ShellExecute( 0, 0, so_what_to_type_here?, 0 ,0,1)
