SYMPTOM(s):

Getting 710 when passing password from parameter file when the password uses special symbols.

** Your Password and Userid cust do not match. (710)

Password contains # symbol.

CAUSE:

The # (pound) symbol is a special symbol in Progress / OpenEdge text files such as the parameter file. The # symbol is used to indicate a comment follows.
Because of this special treatment of the # symbol Progress must be given an override to this special treatment to allow it to be used as a character for the password.

FIX:

Use the ~ (tilda) symbol immediately before the # (pounds) symbol to override the normal Progress / OpenEdge handling of the # (pound) symbol.
Example if the password were set to testme# :
-P testme~#
