sending commands to an app

[TRYP]

i want to have a shortcut in the start-up folder that will send a variable/switch to my app so the app can do 1 of 2 different things on start-up compared to when launched regularly......
any ideas on where to look or any ideas on what to do ?

Use Command function (in help)
Startup line would be MYApp.exe /a
Start normally with MyApp.exe /b
In your application you would have IF Command()="a" THEN DoFirsrthing ELSE DoSecondThing
