Hi,
I need to run a program using redirection or a pipe like this
Program.exe < TextFile.txt or
Type TextFile.txt | Program.exe
I used IA command run program but it isn't working. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a alternative?
Thanks in advance,
sorry for my "wonderful" english.
Redirection and Pipe
I might be able to help up to a point.
MyApp.exe OriginalFile.pdf works, but:
MyApp.exe < qqq.txt which contains the same single argument does not. In other words, < redirection does not work in my example.
If you need to get the arguments to your program from an external file you can read the file using MSI code Read from Text File into a variable and then pass the variable as the argument to your program using Run Program or Run Program As.
Does that help you?
