FIX:
Use -param to specify a character string that can be accessed from 4GL procedures. You can also use this parameter to specify one or more files to load into Procedure Editor buffers. Within a 4GL procedure you can access the string by reading the PARAMETER attribute of the SESSION system handle.
Examples: prowin32.exe -param "ABCD 1234"
4GL: MESSAGE SESSION:PARAMETER. The message is: ABCD 1234
