I am running pagemaker 7.0.1a from a command line prompt from an access visual basic program. The command line is as follows:
Call Shell("C:\Program Files\Adobe\Pagemaker 7.0\Pm70.exe stDocname5 &Chr(38), vbMaximizedFocus"). This opens the appropriate template in Pagemaker.

What I am attempting to do next is to automatically run a script when this template opens. Is there a way to have the command line start the script? Or is there perhaps a way to embed the script in the template (my first choice)

Thanks,
Carol
