Title: Run process for .cmd files

**

Definitely use the full path...but I might recommend c:\progra~1\EIG.cmd instead of the spaces...you may try something simple just to try it out

 

echo "Help" > c:\log.txt

 

if you then have a file named log.txt in the c drive you may want to try this command line

 

start c:\progra~1\EIG.cmd $1$

Hi,

I'm trying to run a .cmd file from the Run Process of a filter. The following is the command line in the Run process command.

cmd /c start EIG.cmd $1$

But it is not executing. Could you please tell me what is the correct syntax ?

The file EIG.cmd is present in a path that is added to the PATH environment variable. I've also tried the path explicitly like cmd /c start C:\Program Files\EIG.cmd $1$

It doesn't work either.

The file EIG.cmd itself is correctl When I manually open a command prompt window and execute the same file, it works correctly. It just doesn't open

from within a filter !

Thanks
Radhika
