Try this rick..

<cfexecute
        name="c:\winnt\system32\ipconfig.exe" 
        arguments="/all" 
        timeout="15" />

If that works then all is well, I think cfexecute may be choking on one or
more of the characters in your arguments string, perhaps the colons or maybe
not.

I seem to remmember reading somewhere about escaping some characters in side
argument strings otherwise cf can treat it as an array instead of a string.

I have been going nuts with this.

I can not get this to pass the arguments to the exe file.

I have tried the following.

<cfexecute name="c:\winnt\system32\cmd.exe" 
arguments="/k c:\telnetscript\tst10.exe /r:script.txt" />

<CFexecute 
NAME="c:\telnetscript\tst10.exe" 
ARGUMENTS="/r:script.txt /o:output.txt /m" 
TIMEOUT="60"/>

And these with the c:\telnetscript\tst10.exe /r:script.txt /o:output.txt /m
inthe file.

<CFexecute 
NAME="c:\telnetscript\test.bat" 
ARGUMENTS="" 
TIMEOUT="60"/>

<CFexecute 
NAME="c:\telnetscript\test.com" 
ARGUMENTS="" 
TIMEOUT="60"/>

<CFexecute 
NAME="c:\telnetscript\test.cmd" 
ARGUMENTS="" 
TIMEOUT="60"/>


It luanches the aplication without the argument. 
It suposed to luanch a cmd window telnet to a server send a print command
and close the window. All the telnet commands are in the script.txt file. I
got the telnet exe file from
http://www.er.uqam.ca/merlin/fg591543/tst/index.html

If I type c:\telnetscript\tst10.exe /r:script.txt /o:output.txt /m
at the cmd promt the program runs perfect.

Any help please.
