If you are using 6.1 try the variable attribute - it will capture screen
output. Then parse out the info you need.

Subject: [cfaussie] RE: Sending ColdFusion Vars to a .exe


I.....I was just reading up about that when you sent the email. I'm
thinking that might be the answer I'm looking for. I'll give it a go later
this afternoon and get back to you. Get vars back is going to be the
tricky bit though....Cause the .exe produces vars that it
displays....mmmmm

Thanks guys!!!
P.S. I can create a .bat file on the fly but its a tad messy i.e. it could
easily break.

thanks again
J.
