running a different form of exe conditionally

[rohitpabby]

Hi All!

e.g. I have got two forms in my exe, one is for employee info. and other is for company info. I want that depending on the ID the specific for should start and the info. for the ID to be fetched automatically. How to do this if we have the ID and want to run exe from a DOS promt? Please help...

Thanks.

Hi,

If you want to type the ID after the exe name (like MyProg MyID), you can get the ID using the command$:

--------------------------------------------------
If lcase$(command$)="employee" then
load FrmEmployee
elseif lcase$(command$)="company"
load FrmCompay
else
msgbox("you must provide an input.&quot
end
end if
--------------------------------------------------

You could also get the login name (faq222-429) and have a list/databse that tells you which users should see which form....
