Executing command line utilities on Windows
This topic contains considerations for executing command line utilities on a Windows system.
Note the following when issuing commands on a Windows system.
- Enter commands at the Command Prompt.
- Pathnames over eight characters, or names with embedded spaces must be entered within double quotes, such as the following.
“C:\Program Files (x86)\Contenta\bin\verilk” - Or, you can use the MS-DOS name which includes the tilde character (~), such as the following.
C:\Progra~1\Contenta\bin\verilk - Before executing command utilities, verify that your PATH variable contains the system directory under the Contenta home directory, such as the following.
“C:\Program Files (x86)\Contenta\system” - Most Contenta commands refer to Contenta registry settings for necessary or required input. See Check Files for Modifications; PutDocDiffing for more information about the Contenta registry settings. You can set Windows environment variables to override registry settings—see the Contenta Environment Variables topic.
- Use ODBC_DSN to identify the database.
