Command Line Parameters

When launching a program I would like to pass a command line parameter or switch to the program (UTILPGM -B). How do I go about reading the command line parameter that I have passed the program using Visual Basic 6.0?

You can achieve this using the Command function:

Command Function - Returns the argument portion of the command line used to launch Microsoft Visual Basic or an executable program developed with Visual Basic.

Example:

Private Sub Form_Load()
If Command <> "" Then MsgBox "You passed the Command Line: " & Command
End Sub
