How to refer to GUID in batch file?

[xyz]

I know that the program indicates that %guid can be used in the command line to refer to the GUID of an item, but I've been trying to refer to it in a batch file and I haven't been able to get it to work. The output is never the actual GUID of the item, just 'guid' or something else. The file attached shows what I've been trying. I have tried similar things with the other properties mentioned (%crc, %addr etc) but I couldn't get them to work either.

The %guid (etc.) syntax is for WCM itself to replace this place-holder with the GUID when computing the command line.

If you call a batch file and want to use these command line parameters there, you have to use the batch-file syntax for command line parameters which is %1 ... %9.

So for example: If you setup in WCM:

MyBatchFile.bat %addr %guid

...then in the batch file you'll have to enumerate these parameters like:

@echo off
REM Command line expected: 1st param: Address, 2nd param: GUID
echo Address is: %1
echo GUID is: %2

Hope that helps...
