EDX Call with Variables

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

Hi All,

We are using the QMSEDX.eve to execute our EDX calls to the server.

The code we use in the Batch File is like this example:

Please can someone tell me how I add a variable value to this code?

I need to be able to take a variable entered on Access Point and then transfer that variable data to the Extract qvw.

Thanks

Sally

Hi Sally,

if you do a "QMSEDX.exe -help" from the command line that will give you the available options.

For example, if you want to set variable "var1" to value "something", then you would do something like:

qmsedx.exe -task="edx" -password="password" -variablename="var1" -variablevalues="something"

Regards,
Magnus

Hi,

I actually wanted to be able to feed the variable value from an input box into the variablevalues.

I have sorted this by creating a macro and reading the whole EDX string and the input field, then create the batch file and open it.

Thank you for responding.

Sally
