Hi,
I am trying to launch Baan from a hyperlink in my email.
The Hyperlink looks like this

//C:\Program Files\Baan\bin\bw.exe

I want this link to start a 3GL program for me.
I have put it in the command (of the configuration).
So far so good.

However I want to pass a parameter to the 3GL Program.
Is there something like
//C:\Program Files\Baan\bin\bw.exe param1


Thanks.
Cheers!

Have you tried something like this - -- -set USER=501holla otuddcconv tmp099416176 where tmp099416176 is the parameter. This is one of the few 3gl programs I use it looks like the file name is making it to my 3gl program, but it does not work because I need some spool variables set.

Hi Mark,
Thanks for the reply.
I had tried that earlier - No Luck.
I could not figure how to assign a value to the variable (in this case
tmp099416176)
Please advice.
Thanks.

Can you use set environment option from this thread (http://www.baanboard.com/baanboard/showthread.php?s=&threadid=95&highlight=bshell+options). Then in the 3gl script you could read the environment variable. What kind of variable are you trying to pass? Or better yet what determines the value?

Mark
