Hello:
	I am currently looking for a way to pass the parameters in .BAT 
file to a program. For example, when you executed a word processor program,
usually you have to supply it with a filename to load. Now what I need is 
to write a .BAT file to execute a program and then supply it with the name
of the file to load.

E.G.:	WP	!to run Word Perfect
	<ALT-F1>!get into Thesaurus menu
	3	!prompt for word
	.	! AND SO ON
	.

and all those parameters will pass to program and execute it automatically
- just like you enter it from the keyboard. And for those whose are experienced
with VAX batch files will get the ideas of what I am talking about. 

**** Any info will greatly appreciated.****
