Run DBLoad from the command prompt

You use DBLoad to import tag information into an InTouch application. You can run DBLoad from the command prompt. You must stop WindowMaker before running DBLoad.

DBLoad command parameters are position dependent, if you want to omit a parameter between included parameters, you must include a comma for the missing parameter. The following example shows the syntax of the DBLoad command when you run it from the command prompt:

DBLoad AppPath,CsvPath,MessageBoxes

Parameters

AppPath

Specifies the path to the InTouch application.

CsvPath

Specifies the path to the file containing tag definitions to be imported into an application's Tagname Dictionary.

MessageBoxes

Specifies whether messages appear when the DBLoad utility imports the contents of the import file into the application's Tagname Dictionary. 1 indicates the message boxes are to be displayed. 0 indicates message boxes are not to be displayed.

Example

Suppose the InTouch application is located in the C:\MyInTouchApps\App001 folder and you want to read the tag database information from the C:\TagDumps\App001.Csv file. You do not want the message boxes to appear. The following example shows the DBLoad command you enter at the command prompt:
