Ben, we must be using different versions of CW because I have already tried
invoking "ide.exe" with "/?" for hints prior to sending my initial email.
Nonetheless, I tried again with the other options you listed, no luck... the
best that I can do with my "ide.exe" is to have it open up the project, then
no matter what options I fed in seem to be ignored.
The version of my IDE reads "3.1" and it is "Build 0135"...
Thanks,
Edmond

Yes, it does...
Metrowerks CodeWarrior IDE. Hit /? for help
This program invokes the CodeWarrior IDE, passes the proper parameters
to produce a build, and waits for the IDE to finish its operation.
Arguments:
/t targetname specifies a target to become the current target
/r remove objects of the current target before building
/b build the current target
/c close the project after building
/q quit the IDE after building
/v y|n|a option for converting projects on open
(y = convert without asking; n = don't convert;
a =ask whether to convert)
/s Forces the command line to be processed in a new
instance of the IDE (rather than using a current instance)
Notes:
1) If more than one project document is specified to be opened in the
command line, the /t and build command flags apply to the first project
document found in the list of documents. If no project is specified in the
command line, it will use the usual logic in the IDE (front project or
default project) to figure out which project to build.
If no target is specified it uses whatever the current target
is for that project.
2) All build commands are executed in a different process from the one
launched from the command line. The original process will return as soon
as the command line has been completely processed and the build
has completed.
3) The following codes are returned:
0 no error
1 error opening file
2 project not open
3 IDE is already building
4 invalid target name (for /t flag)
5 error changing current target
6 error removing objects
7 build was cancelled
8 build failed
9 process aborted
