Easy question for all expert

[Ghislain Tanguay]

I have a compiled vb.net app and I want to give the user a choice to launch
it from the start line command and pass it a parameter or not. How can I do
that in my code? Is it possible?

Ex. : MyApp.exe "Go"

[SStory]

checkout system.environment.commandline I think.

I am not in the IDE at present.

Then just look through the commandline args in that array or collection and
act accordingly.

HTH,

Easy question for the "All Expert"

And than I can only think on Herfried, I saw CJ did the same.

[Cor Ligthert]

Shane,

Mostly the questions are not for such a selective public, everybody may
answer of course.

Do not take it serious please?

Well, since it is bad english either way it is hard for someone to tell.

it says Easy question for all expert

could be interpreted as a foreigner trying to say All Experts

correct english would have been, "An easy question for the Great Expert"
or "Mr. Know-It-All" or something of that fashion.

as it didn't have "the" in front of the word "all" it was bad english to
start with.
Sorry for trying to help.

Shane,

I hope you saw my extra message, there is nothing serious in my message, you
had given an answer and Herfried had.

I only become triggered when somebody ask for an expert.

This newsgroup is in my opinion for everybody and everybody is allowed to
answer questions or to set them

:-)

Cor

[SStory]

No problem.
I guess it is the language barrier maybe.
