Hi, anybody knows why I can't call external executable with a parameter under WinNT (I use cmd "shell"). The parameter is a name of file containing spaces, and that's probably the source of problems. I have been trying to do that in many ways, but none of them works.
# for instance $batch = 'C:/Program Files/Logictran/r2net.exe'; $name = 'SPM Change Control_1.rtf'; system($batch, $name)==0 or die "No way!\n"; # also $batch="\"C:\\Program Files\\Logictran\\r2net.exe\""; $name="C:\\www for SDC\\SPM Change Control_1.rtf"; # or $name='"C:\\www for SDC\\SPM Change Control_1.rtf"'; @lines=`$batch $name`; #or system($batch, $name)==0 or die "No way!\n"; when I use no parameter the .exe file is called right (although it's name also include spaces). How to do that? Thank you in advance Krzysztof -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
