Hi, Thanks a lot for an instant reply. Actualy i am invoking the 'R' application from JAVA programme. I am using 'test.R' script file.
Is the below command a right one or is there any other command option available. c:\\R\\rw1091\\bin\\R.exe CMD BATCH c:\\R\\rw1091\\bin\\test.R I need to create a batch file for setting the environment variable and call it using commandArgs() or ?Sys.getenv.

Anything on the command line after --args is ignored but can be retrieved by commandArgs. So suppose I have a script quote.R: commandArgs()[-(1:3)] q() and a batch file quote.bat: Rterm.exe --slave --args %* < quote.R Then [c:/R]% quote.bat foo bar bah [1] "foo" "bar" "bah" If people would cooperate (an identical message was sent to R-bugs this morning, PR#7201), we might feel inclined to add such things to the documentation.
