I haven't done this in years, and it's from memory, so bear with me...
You can pass variables to a DOS batch file when running it from a
command line (not double-clicking an icon).
In the command line type the batchfile name followed by a space, then
the variable. For example:
c:\login.bat mypassword
Within the batch file, you reference this variable using (and this is
where memory gets fuzzy...) %1 I think. Also, multiple variables can
be passed using %1 %2 etc.
c:\login.bat mypassword myname
Also note that you should be able to call one batch file from another
one, passing variables all the way....
Good luck
Steve
