Running a WinSpool/400 Converter from the DOS Command Line

 

Problem:

When you run one of the WinSpool/400 Converters from a DOS prompt and the DOS command line is in the following format:

C:\Program Files\WSPPDF\wsppdf.exe c:\temp\spoolf.txt c:\temp\output.pdf

A WinSpool/400 Converter screen displays and looks like this:

Solution:

Put a comma between the two parameters as follows:

C:\Program Files\WSPPDF\wsppdf.exe c:\temp\spoolf.txt, c:\temp\output.pdf

Now the WinSpool/400 Converter screen will not display, and instead a progress bar displays.
