<P>
Parameters that are entered after
<CODE>filename</CODE> are used in one of two ways. Either the <i>n</i><SUP>th</SUP> parameter
will replace the <i>n</i><SUP>th</SUP>
<CODE>?</CODE> that is found in the file, or the
<i>n</i><SUP>th</SUP> parameter in the list will replace all
<CODE>?n</CODE>'s found in the file. Sequential
parameters must be in a one-to-one correspondence with the
<CODE>?</CODE>'s and in the correct order. It is
possible to mix sequential and numbered parameters in the same file, but it
is not recommended as this can be very confusing.</P>
<P>
Numbered parameter zero, that is, <CODE>?0</CODE>,
in a script always is replaced by the name of the script file. Use the
<a href="../Functions/StringManipulation/string.htm"><CODE>STRING</CODE></a>
function to convert it to a quote string. For example:</P>
<font color="blue"><PRE>
DISPLAY 'executing script file = '//STRING(?0)</PRE></font>
