Load
Syntax: Load programname

Description: Loads and starts a specified server task or program on the server. You can start a server add-in program or one that takes a command line for additional data, such as a backup program. The program you run must be on the server's search path.

Use the Load command to run a program until it completes or, if the program runs continually, until you stop the server. Where applicable, you can include arguments that determine how the program runs.

Note Most server commands support the arguments "-?" and "/?" to display online help. For example, you could enter one of these to obtain help for the server command Load Compact:


Examples:

Load Fixup -- Loads and runs the Fixup server task.
