Progress
Startup Command and Parameter
Reference
Startup Procedure (-p)
filename
The name of the procedure to run when starting Progress.
Use Startup Procedure (
-p
) to specify a procedure that executes at the start of a Progress session. A common use for the-p
parameter is to run a Progress procedure that displays a main application menu. The user can then choose options from the menu to run other Progress procedures. As a built-in security measure, when users press CTRL-C while running a procedure specified by -p, Progress prevents the users from accessing the procedure editor by rerunning the specified procedure (unless the application explicitly allows procedure editor access).If you use the Batch (-b) startup parameter (MBPRO or BPRO), also use the
-p
parameter.
