Getparam
Writes the parameter at the given index position into %var%. This is needed when dealing with more than 9 passed parameters using the Run or Exec commands.
Syntax
GetParam,Index,%Var%
Parameters
| 1 | Index | The position of the passed argument to read |
| 2 | %Variable% | The Variable to write the value to |
Remarks
Parameters are accessible by only a single digit following the "#" (hash mark) character. Given the "fixed formatting", a different process was needed to access the values of any greater parameter.
This is also an easy way to make script files more readable, since it allows you to assign a more meaningful variable name to the parameters being passed into the section.
Example:
When running the command:
Run,%ScriptFile%,Animals,Cow,Dog,Cat,Goat,Donkey,Wombat,Turkey,Horse,Fox,Hippopotamus,Rino [Animals] GetParam,10,%aBigAnimal% Echo,%aBigAnimal%
The value of %aBigAnimal% will be Hippopotamus
