Running parameters for external programs

[Xait]

Hi.

I have a script that is basicly a teamspeak launcher. I choose a server and it connects to the server, at the moment it works by using mouse movements after teamspeak.exe is run. How can I add parameters to the run command so I can make it auto login on launch. so It would look something like Run("c:\program files\teamspeak\teamspeak.exe "192.168.1.1?mylogin?mypassword?channelname"") I tried that but when I put it in double double, double quotes it chucks out an error at me.

What do I have to do to make it work? :-)

Thanks Wez

from the manual:

You can mix quote types to make for easier working and to avoid having to double-up your quotes to get what you want. For example if you want to use a lot of double-quotes in your strings then you should use single-quotes for declaring them:

'This "sentence" contains "lots" of "double-quotes" does it not?'

For me, that gets confusing to look at. What I do is I split up the string into segments. Like this:

MsgBox(0, "", '"' & "Double Quotes" & '"')

I just think it's easier to look at and visualize.

well its not that complicated. in this particular case it would be:

Run('c:\program files\teamspeak\teamspeak.exe "192.168.1.1?mylogin?mypassword?channelname"')

Just a suggestion for future use. It is more useful when the quotes are in the middle of the string.
