In Merc 6.0 I want to override the input source and change the database query. I am not sure how to do this. I have this but it doesn't seem to work.

mercnt 856_Generic.mmc -ID1 -QUERY Federal I wish the help file had examples.

I actually found an example and typed it pretty much as follows:

Mercnt 856_Generic -ID1 "'-MDQ VAM.mdq -DBNAME Cssi -QUERY FEDL'"

Todd thing is the Help file pops up when I run this command?? If I get rid of DBNAME the map runs but the query is not changed and then a second map tries to run called FEDL'".mmc Seems there is something wrong with the command line options but I can't find it. Is this a known error/bug?
