Startup Options
You can create Analyzer applications using the shortcut feature in Microsoft Windows™ which can be run by double-clicking an icon or by using Microsoft’s Task Scheduler. With custom shortcuts, you can automatically load an Analyzer Project, initialize variables and/or run a procedure. Custom shortcuts include the path name of the Analyzer executable file and parameters such as the Analyzer Project name, variables and procedures.
Note: “Parameters” and “Target text box” in Windows shortcuts are separate and distinct from Analyzer command parameters and the command line in the Analyzer Command Log.
