Hi Folks,
I am new in progress OpenEdge.
I wish to pass a text/string to progress client during the start up of the program.
-Param is the only option/method to use ?
It's only support comma delimiter? Any other method to use?
Anyone here can advise me.
Thank you in advance. =)
Regards,
Huat
AFAIK -param is the only option. But it doesn't have to be comma delimited. It can be a string of whatever you like, so long as your program deals with it. So you can use | if you prefer, or some other method.

Hi James, Thanks for the prompt response. =)
Because i have a external program try to pass some information to progress client on start up (string separate with PIPE delimiter)
You can pass anything using –param – when passing longer strings, you might want to put quotes around the string:
prowin32 -param "Test |Test2 "
Hi,
i tried to run it with window cmd prompt.
If -param with "Test,Test2", it is working fine.
Not working if i change to "Test |Test2".
with 9.1B version progress.
Thanks all for the helps.
my mistake. should use double " quote instead of single.
Yes, it working fine with comma delimited and PIPE.
Thanks Mike!
i used the single quote by mistake.
It's working now. Thanks a lot. =)
