1367.0. "AutoStart with params?" by MIACT::MURPHY () Tue Jun 22 1993 11:54

    I am writing an application on an ST, and would like to Autostart it on
    boot (from Hard disk). I know if I put it in an AUTO folder it will run
    - but its using DBMAN (a .TTP program) that requests parameters - AND I
    need to give it a parameter! IS there anyway of being able to automate
    all of this - so when I boot DbMan starts with the (passed) parameter?
    
    Thans in advance,
    
    Jonathan.
