Windows 2000, IIS 5 It is sort of tricky to pass a filename as a command-line parameter, but it will work if you follow two simple rules. 1. Escape backslashes of the the filename but not the executable, as in $output = C:\executable C:\\directory\\filename; 2. You may enclose either the executable or the filename in quotes, but not both.
