Pass Variable to remote program

**billmans2** · 06-30-2009, 03:07 PM

Hello,

This is new to me, just got my FB. I have the basics up and running, and I was wondering if there is any way to pass the value of a variable to an external program. I can get wget.exe to run when I want it too, just don't know how to get the variable there.

ie:

wget.exe http://webserver?temp1=<FB Variable Value>

Thanks - BTW so far this look really cool.

Currently you cannot do that. I only just recently added the external program option. I will have to think about how to implement this.
