Easy question re. scripting
I have the following in a prerequisite script where I need to execute an application with line parameters:
cmdline=" /qb /settings <C:\SQLServerOptions.txt>"
/>
Using the above, I get an error but I know that the C:\SQLServerOptions.txt file is present and valid. I presume that the error has to do with the quotes. So how do I specify quote-unquote in a prerequisite script?
cmdline=" /qb /settings <C:\SQLServerOptions.txt>"
/>

Try using \" as your escape character. I think that should work...
cmdline=" /qb /settings \"C:\SQLServerOptions.txt\""
cmdline=" /qb /settings \"C:\SQLServerOptions.txt\""
