General Topics > Command Line Switches

The normal startup method for TrackPro is to open the TrackPro.exe file using a shortcut. This opens TrackPro to the main form. TrackPro has the capability of scheduling certain functions and then executing them with the assistance of the Windows Scheduler. In the case of AutoEmail and Backups there is no visible user interface. When status reports are displayed by the scheduler only the report preview screen is shown and not the balance of the user interface. Scheduled functions can be activated at any time by using the following command line switches. 

• -a      Notify Custodians (AutoEmail)
• -b      Backups
• -s      Status Reports

To perform a backup type <trackpro -b> at the command prompt in the TrackPro folder.
