You can supply command arguments when you start AQT.
These can be provided by:
The various command arguments are given as follows:
Argument |
Description |
aqtv11.exe sqlfile logfile append |
Old format for running a batch script |
aqtv11.exe sqlfile=file1.sql,logfile=file1.log |
New format for running a batch script |
aqtv11.exe sqlfile=custreport.sql,custcode=MS01,rptyear=2021 |
Run batch script custreport.sql. Parameters custcode and rptyear can be specified on the command. |
aqtv11.exe aqtdemo.mdb |
Open an MS Access database with AQT. Can also be used to open files of type: xls, xlsx, dbf, csv, accdb |
aqtv11.exe create_tables.ddl |
Start AQT and run the statements in the DDL file |
aqvt11.exe chart.xcf |
Start AQT and display the chart file |
aqtv11.exe -e demo.sql |
Start AQT and edit the file in the SQL window. The SQL is not run. |
aqtv11.exe -activate,username=KTrout |
Activate your AQT license |
aqtv11.exe conn=connection string,dbs=dbname |
Start AQT and connect to a database. dbs gives the name of the database within AQT. |
aqtv11.exe options=optionname=optionvalue |
Start AQT specifying an option. |
The command to do this is:
aqtv11.exe conn=connection-string,dbs=dbname
Examples of connection strings:
conn=dsn=AQTDemo |
Connect to datasource AQTDemo |
conn="dsn=DB2SAMP;uid=test;pwd=testpwd;" |
Connect to datasource DB2SAMP specifying the userid and password. |
conn="dsn=DB2SAMP;uid=test;epwd=^PM3xj3+LTxu9MVIkYzVOx66qjgGczP2+DagpjY/BY=kg;" |
Connect to datasource DB2SAMP specifying the userid and an encrypted password. It is recommended that encrypted passwords are used if the command is coded in a bat file |
conn="driver=oracle;ServerName=oraserv01:1521/XE;UID=system;PWD=******"" |
Connect to Oracle where no datasource has been defined |
The third example shows how you can connect to a database when you haven't created a datasource. This form of the connection string requires you to specify the Driver. There are two formats:
In the first of these, you need to specify the driver name exactly. If it is different by as much as a single byte, the connection will fail.
The second example is an AQT-developed variation of the Driver clause. AQT will scan all drivers defined to your Windows system looking for one containing "Oracle". It will then use this driver in your connection string. The "MS ODBC for Oracle" driver will be ignored.
You can specify options when you start AQT.
Examples:
aqtv11.exe options=readonlymode=yes |
|
aqtv11.exe options=sessions=n,options=maxrows=100 |
Example of specifying more than one option |
aqtv11.exe options=cfgdir="Q:\AQT Files\aqt_cfg" |
Enclose values in double-quotes if they contain spaces |
