[CLOSED] url to execute FEX not working

November 21, 2011, 11:19 AM

I formulate a url in vb.net and try and launch it. it is not accepting the input parms.

Not sure why. it I try and take the url out of the app and just launch in browser, same result.

it doesn't recognize anything fromt eh EXCH2 parameter on and I get prompts for those values.

???????????????

Do you need to escape the # character ?

Waz is correct. The # is a killer in a url string. Change to %23, or better still use UrlEncode.
