I tried but I can't find a way to add any parameters. Seems anything after a space is ignored.

Hi,

What if the whole command line is between quotes "..." ?

If that still not word then as workaround you could open a *.CMD or *.BAT file where the parameters are in. Eventually the batch file can be written on the fly.

between quotes "..." didn't work but I would try using .bat or .cmd files. I'm quite sure that would do it - good idea...

opening .bat file should work. i tried that but client don't want that.
I found one more solution. I created a new file type named ".mayfiletype". Make file of this type open with your exe.
creat a new file mylink.myfiletype
Point your pushpin hyper link to your the file of type ".myfiletype"
like "file://C:/Mappoint/mylink.myfiletype" on clicking the exe takes mylink as the parameter.
you can rename the file depending upon the parameters you want to pass.
Am still looking for a optimal solution. :roll:
