I have an external link button in my Item Maintenance and the following VB Script.  What I need to do is pass the Item Code variable to an external custom Price Level VB.NET app I have written that accepts two arguments, the Item Code and Customer Number.  What I'd like to do is pass the current Item Code from the Item Maintainance screen to my app (PriceLevels.exe).  My app's parameter syntax is as follows:


PriceLevels.exe i=123456 c=55


where i is Item Code and c is Customer Number.  Here's my code, but it fails to send the ItemCode data.  It is always a blank/null/empty for some reason.


*******


Dim myObj

Dim myItemCode


Set myObj = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")


myItemCode = ""

myItemCode = [CI_ItemCode_bus_ItemCode$]


myObj.CurrentDirectory = "C:\Users\Arthur\Documents\Business\TechnoCom\VB Projects\Price Levels - 4\Price Levels\bin\Debug"


myObj.Run "PriceLevels.exe i=" & myItemCode & " c=18


*******


What am I doing wrong???
