HI autoitquestion,

you can call any other program with ShellExecute() e.g. ShellExecute("Script2.exe","param1 param2")

In the second script (in all autoit scripts) there is a constant called CmdLine.

CmdLine[0] holds the amount of parameters,

CmdLine[1] to CmdLine[n] the parameters itself. As far as I know you can setup up to 64 parameters. But please feel free to look it up in the helpfile under "Running Scripts" => "Command Line Parameters".

Hi

can you give us an example of a script to receive a command line param? into a msgbox for example?

cheers

[hannes08]

If $CmdLine[0] > 1 Then
    MsgBox(0, "First Parameter:", $CmdLine[1])
EndIf

Either compile and call like: script.exe parameter

Or use SciTe and add up to 4 parameters for testing over the menues View => Parameters
