| Will writes "Hi-I am attempting to write a stored procedure that uses xp_cmdshell. What I am trying to accomplish is to run an exe that finds a certain XML file, searches the XML file for invalid characters and removes them. We have the exe written, I need to find a way to call the exe and point it towards the certain XML file. What I predict is something like the following:EXEC master..xp_cmdshell 'mdm_CleanExternalXML.exe','nomenclature_file.xml'Where mdm_CleanExternalXML.exe is the exe name that cleans the file nomenclature_file.xml. I would think that the XML file would be a parameter for the exe. How would I call the certain XML file?Is the above syntax correct?Thanks" |
