Command line arguments
Command line arguments allow you to start InfoQube with certain parameters. The format is:
- InfoQube.exe /param /param2:test
To start a program with command line arguments, you can:
- Create a Windows shortcut
- Create a batch file
- Open a command window and type manually type the command
- Use InfoQube or another program launcher
InfoQube supports the following command line arguments:
- /LastFile
Automatically opens the last opened file
- /File: File1
Automatically open a given file (full path enclosed with " ") (unless Shift is held down during startup)
- /Files: File1, File2, ...
Automatically open a list of files (full path enclosed with " ", comma-separated) (unless Shift is held down during startup)
- /Password: YourPassword
For password protected files, will attempt to open the file with the supplied password. Needless to say, this is not a very secure way of doing...
- /User: UserName
IQ normally uses the Windows logon to user-stamp operations. With this flag, you can force the use of another user name. This is convenient when working on different machines, with different logons (i.e. home and office)
- /Repair
Opens the file and performs a repair
Example 1: The following batch file would change the folder to the current one, start InfoQube and set the current user to User1:
CD %CD%
start InfoQube.exe /user:User1
exit /B
start InfoQube.exe /user:User1
exit /B
Example 2: Creating a Windows shortcut with the following, would automatically start up the kab002 IQbase:
C:\IQ\InfoQube.exe /File: "C:\IQ\Users\You\kab002.SNDB"
