Message-ID: <39104@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU> Date: 11 Oct 90 06:11:49 GMT Sender: usenet@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Reply-To: brand@janus.Berkeley.EDU Lines: 14 I have been trying, without success, to pass a batch file command line argument to a program that is invoked from inside the batch file. The batch file has something like: ..... programname "%1" ..... and is invoked as: batchfilename param but programname never gets param. Would someone advise me how to do this correctly?
