The problem is that cmd.exe sees the ampersand as a command
separator and therefore sees that as two commands. To see
what I mean bring up a "dos-box" on your pc and type
"dir&cls" (without the quotes) and you'll run 2 commands,
first the dir command and then a clear screen command.
You can tell cmd.exe to ignore the ampersand by prefixing it
with a carrot. If you type "dir^&cls" you'll see that the
carrot is gone, but it can't find a program called "dir&cls"
So, in your CL, you want:
VALUE('START http://xx.xx.xxx.xx:8014/citcgidevp/GETDIV2?division='
*TCAT &DIVISION *TCAT '^&qstrat_rfq=' *TCAT &QLMRFQ#)
(Note the carrot before the &qstrat_rfq...)

Subject: [WEB400] Passing Parms to CGI From CL.
Greetings List,
I hope all of you had a merry Christmas and have a happy and
prosperous new year.
Here is what I am trying to do. I have a CGIDEV2 program
that adds footnotes to an RFQ. Since several divisions will
be using this program, I need to send the division name as
well as the RFQ number to the CGI program.
I have the following commands in my CL program:
CHGVAR VAR(&PCCOMMAND) VALUE('START
http://xx.xx.xxx.xx:8014/citcgidevp/GETDIV2?division=' *TCAT
&DIVISION
*TCAT '&qstrat_rfq=' *TCAT &QLMRFQ#)
STRPCCMD PCCMD(&PCCOMMAND) PAUSE(*NO)
I can get this to work if I key it into the command line of
the browser but not when I call it from the CL. Can some
one tell me what I am doing wrong? I saw an older post
somewhere that said that the START command was limited to
123 characters. Is that correct and if so, how do you get
around this limitation?
Thanks,
Terry Anderson
