Executing Windows and DOS commands from Statit


Abstract: Using the Statit RUN command without getting a DOS window.

Product: Statit Custom QC

There are three built-in options to run Windows or DOS commands from Statit.

run (command) - Will execute a Windows application as if selected from the Explorer. If a DOS command, it will execute with no visible output.

run (function) - Will execute a Windows or DOS command, but as well allows the options of NoWait and NoWindow. Ex: $i=run("explorer.exe","nowait").

spawn (function) - Executes a Windows or DOS command by passing arguments to it. Allows Wait or NoWait.

You may well need to experiment to choose the right one for your application.
