Passing strings by Spawn [message #59833]

Hello Everyone!

I need to open an exe file using IDL, and pass a few string arguments
(like as if it was a .c file)
Anyway, I gathered I can use the Spawn command, and it does work,
except for one issue.

The arguments I pass to the exe file, are variables which contain
strings. However, when I pass it by the Spawn command, the exe file
receives the variables names rather than the strings themselves, which
is quite silly.
Since I get those string names from another function, I can't manually
type them to the Spawn command (althought that would work)

Can anyone give me some advice, should I use another command, or maybe
some way to make Spawn like my variables more?

Cheers, Alex
