    Command-line variable setting not working

      Hi Folks,

       

      I'm trying to run a QV10 SR3 QVW from the Win XP command-line, passing in a variable as I do so, but it isn't working as expected and would like your suggestions.

       

      The QVW is attached - it's quite simple, expecting that a variable x will be provided from 'outside', and doing this:

           trace x=$(x);

           LET y=x&x;

           trace y=$(y);


      The command-line I'm using is
           qv /r /vx=abc .\test.qvw

       

      The resulting logfile merely displays

           x=

           y=

      (whereas I expected

           x=abc

           y=abcabc

      )

      and the resulting QVW has no variables listed in the  Settings>Variables Overview listing.

       

      I tried using /l (that's lowercase L) instead of /r,perchance it made a difference - but it didn't.

       

      Is there something I'm missing?

       

      Thanks,

      Angus.
