I am having a major problem with the RUNRMTCMD CMD parameter in regard to the use of quotes with a path name which contains an embedded blank. In essence, I want to run a vbscript program which accepts two parameters. One is a 5 digit number, and the other is a string. The vbscript program is in a folder which contains a blank in the path name. Here is the CMD value: RUNRMTCMD CMD('Start "C:\TEMP\Change Control\createActionDoc.vbs" 77778 "A very long description"') RMTLOCNAME('192.168.1.127' *IP) RMTUSER(*NONE) 77778 is a parameter to createActionDoc, as is A Very Long Description When I issue this I get a message box with 77778 in the title and a message saying that Windows Cannot Find 7778. I presume this means that windows thinks that 77778 is a program. If I place the double quotes round the whole string after Start, I get a new window, but nothing gets started: RUNRMTCMD CMD('Start "C:\TEMP\Change Control\createActionDoc.vbs 77778 A very long description"') RMTLOCNAME('192.168.1.127' *IP) RMTUSER(*NONE) If I remove the double quotes from the path and restrict it to the parameter string, windows tells me it can't find C:\TEMP\Change. This of course is the path to the first blank in the path name. RUNRMTCMD CMD('Start C:\TEMP\Change Control\createActionDoc.vbs 77778 "A very long description"') RMTLOCNAME('192.168.1.127' *IP) RMTUSER(*NONE) I can always place an underscore in between Change & Control, but I'd rather not. I'd like to get on top of what is happening under the covers. Thanks In Advance.
