ImhoffExecute procedure from the command line?
Is there any way to execute a webfocus stored procedure from a command line? I'm trying to automate exporting data to csv files and was hoping to kick off the process from a bat file.
Thanks for any suggestions or examples that you may have.
Have a good day,
Michael

ibidevelopMichael,
You can use ibiweb.exe -v IBIF_ex=fexname in a batch file but you're probably better off creating a t3i script such as the following:
miket3i.t3i
----------
%connect
%begin
EX FEXNAME
%end
%disconnect
%stop_server
The t3i script can be executed using "edastart -f" from a batch file.
mikebat.bat
----------
C:\ibi\srv71\wfs\bin\edastart -f miket3i
Hope this helps.

<RickW>You may want to look into Reportcaster as an alternative for your automation.
