The startup command for my Progress clients contains a reference to "sy_start2.p". Where can I find this and view its contents?

The full path is:
C:\PROGRESS\bin\prowin32.exe test -N tcp -H 192.168.1.5 -S 20000 -p sy_start2.p -T E:\test\tmp -pf E:\test\setup\testclient.pf -basekey INI -ininame e:\test\setup\test.ini
 
The 'sy_start.p' is your application start-up procedure. It will be found in one of the directories listed in your PROPATH environment variable. You may actually find 'sy_start.r', a compiled version of the procedure, not human-readable.

Additional Progress startup parameters are in the '.pf' [parameter file] named with the -pf option in your startup command. The parameters & settings in the .pf file are applied as if they were part of the startup command.
 
Thanks for the reply, MadMichael. I found "sy_start.r" shortly after posting my question. I was really hoping that it would be just a simple text file. Since it has to be compiled, I'll just leave it alone and let my software vendor handle it.
