I use the addtrap utility to add a bunch of user defined traps to NetView, one of the parameters I pass to my .bat file is $1, however I need to enclose this in double quotes. ie addtrap ..... -c c:\usr\MyTrapHandler.dat -A first_param $1 where $1 is the second parameter to my .bat file. Is there any way of doing this (not from the GUI). I need the command (as seen from the GUI to look like this c:\usr\MyTrapHandler.bat $A "$1" Thanks, Keith

Keith, I have only done something similar using the GUI, so can't help there I am afraid. However, its worth noting (and perhaps this might be causing you a problem too) that, when using the GUI, to get the following quote on numeric parameters to be seen actually requires two quotes. Confused? Me too! If you want to use "$1" in the command line then you actually have to use "$1"". For the non-numeric parameters (e.g. $A) then bounding them with a single quote is sufficient (e.g. "$A"). It seems that this is a characteristic of UNIX (now there's a surprise!). Maybe you need to do something similar in you ADDTRAP command? Hope this helps. Jim | |||||
