Question:

How do I pass parameters between WinBatch scripts and DOS Batch files?

Answer:

Here's how.

The WinBatch script:

        a="Fred"
        b="Sally"
        c="123.456"

        xxx=strcat(a," ",b," ",c)
        Runwait("zing.bat",xxx)

or...

        RunWait("zing.bat", "%a% %b% %c%")

The DOS Batch file:

REM ZING.BAT

echo First parameter %1

echo Second Parameter %2

echo Third Parameter %3

echo Forth Parameter %4

pause
