Host start in command- and sql-window don't work

[Theod]

Hi,

host start "C:\Programme\Internet Explorer\" iexplore.exe filename

works with sql+ but not in PLD.

Micosoft Windows XP Professional 2002, SP 3

It works fine for me, but I quoted things differently:

host "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"

Hi,

I've tried this quotes also, but so

host start "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"

and it didn't work.

But without the start keyword, as you did, it works now also for me ;-)

host "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"

sql+ seems to be "hardened" for different syntax.

I see. We'll check it out. Are you using a 64 bit or 32 bit XP?

"start" is a windows command-line command. If you use the non-command-line sqlplusw instead of sqlplus, "host" and "host start" have different results.

Hi,

I'm using 32 bit XP and tested sqlplus.exe vs. PLD.
