The .BAT file doesn't know %p
The .BAT is called with the CONTENT of %p
And (if I remember well how BAT files work) the 1st parameter the .BAT receives
is seen a %1, the 2nd as %2 , …
BUT a SPACE does separate the parameters from each other.
Example
pretty name is : This is a test
if you call
mybatch.bat %p
then it's send to the OS as
mybatch.bat This is a test
From the OS point of view the .BAT is then called with 4
parameters being
This
is
a
test
(spaces are the separators between the parameters for the OS)

hello Dirk,
Thanks for your answer.
It seems not working for me. May be I put the wrong entries in my batch file.
For testing, I created this batch file and passed the variable %p.
Command line in Alert Tab : mybatch.bat %p
Mybatch.bat :
Echo on
set name = %p
Echo "%name%"
The result :
""
May be I misunderstood something. Could you give me an example ?
Sincerely,
Patrice.

When the BAT file is called you can within it's commandline add all of the %
parameters.
Do know that the "result" of the % paramters can contain a SPACE so make sure
your BAT file can handle them.

file
Hello,
I chose the "Execute command" in the Alert Tab. I execute a batch file to send
SMS. I would like to pass SA variables (%p, %s, ...) to my batch file.
For example :
Echo on
Set Pretty_name = %p
Set Status = %s
Echo The status of %p is %s.
Thanks for yours ideas.
Sincerely.
Patrice.
