Access Command Line Switches


I would like to use a command line switch to open an Access 2K database
that is secured with a simple password (not full blown workgroup
security). The /pwd and /user switches seem to be geared for the
workgroup security group approach. Is there a simple command line switch
that I can use for my purposes? I don't see anything in the help
documentation.

Nope. The simple password is so easily cracked anyway that I wouldn't
bother with it.

I have a mySQL database located on a remote host's server. I would like to schedule a task on my local Windows computer to retrieve a backup/dump of this remote database. I have contacted my host, and they indicated that the server is only open to the Internet via mySQL. Therefore, even if I did have access to that server's command line (which I don't) to create dumps via mysqldump, I would not be able to retrieve via FTP. Does...

I have a VB solution which consists of a number of projects. When I put the executable out for QA, it would be nice to be able to run a script that goes into Source Safe and does a Get Latest and then compiles the code. I think I have the Source Safe portion figured out, but can anyone tell me how to compile the solution (and each of its projects) from the command line? TIA Ron L

I'm trying to programmatically run msinfo32.exe /? with the following line of code but it is not taking the switch: System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("c:\program files\common files\Microsoft Shared\MSInfo\msinfo32.exe /?") I have a couple other command line tools with switches that I would like to programmatically execute as well. I'm thinking there is another way to do this but am coming up short. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I'm new to this and was wondering what the options are for interpreting the command line using a CLI program. Specifically methods for interpreting the parameters passed to the program on the command line. I noticed that visual studio adds the following for you when creating a new CLI program: void main(string args) { }

Hi everyone, My goal is to pull command switches/options from a file and then assign the values to select variables which would eventually be included in a class object. The data file looks something like this but the switches could be in any order and not all may be used. -m quemanager -s server -p port -k key -o object -c 20 -t test@email.com
