Nothing. Its the answers I need. :-)

Bullshit.
#1: I've asked if the "execute" command can return a result, as wel as
accept arguments. Whats "secretive" about that, and how would that force
you to do "wild guesses" ?
If you do not know than say so. If you have (MSDN) documentation stating
pro or con even better. If you need question-specific info than specify
and I will try to provide it (even if I have to create-and-post some example
code).
#2: I do not (initially) mention what I'm using it for as I find that rather
irrelevant. I have the need to know *what the command does* so I can use it
whenever I please (now, but also in the future in other circumstances), not
what I can plug into my current script to get it to run (as I already
mentioned, I could use a more mundane "select case" instead. In other
words, getting a script of mine to run is NOT any of my problems).
#3: I've asked questions her long enough to become aware that most people
get rather confused when being provided with too much information, leading
to all kinds of "answers" which have got nothing to do with the question and
are infact just interference.
In short: the question I'm posting is exactly what what I want/need to have
answered. No more, no less. Simple, no ?
In this case a simple "no" accompanied by a short explanation why ("you do
not need them because ...") would most likely have sufficed.
Just outof curiositry, what did you *think* I asked (if you can put that
into words) ?
And to be honest about it, I assumed that "execute" would run the provided
script in its own scope. Which either forces the need for arguments and data
returnal, or needs some kind of (awkward) IPC mechanism (as Ulrich is
suggesting).
But as I was wrong in that and it runs in the scope of the script/procedure
its called by (meaning it can read, write and alter its "parents" variables)
arguments and return values are not needed.
.... which I already mentioned in the last paragraph of my third post in
this thread. In other words, the problem I thought I had (needing
arguments and returned data) wasn't actually there. I just didn't quite
realize it at that moment -- and neither did you. :-\
Bottom line: The problem has been solved. By yours truly. Again.
Regards,
Rudy Wieser
