Hello,

Wondering if anyone can help with this one.  When netsetup completes it laucnhes Calyx Point.  Is there a way to stop this?  I want it to install Point but not launch it.  I looked around the files inside of the netsetup folder but was unable to find the key to hault this.

Thanks in advance.

Thank you,

Eric J. Lilly

There currently isn't a setting to control this.  I'll add it to our feature request for a future version of Point.

Hi,

I assume this will not make it for the 6.2 release. And for that release I am going to need to think of a work around. Basically here is what I have happen - I have a batch file that calls 3 other files.

It calls the netsetup to install Point 6.2
It then calls a .exe created by me to add our custom information
And then it calls another .exe that adds specific custom information depending on branch

My problem is that my .exe need Point to be closed. So when running my batch it errors out because Point is open.

Is there a command I can use, to write a batch that will close Point?

I could re write my batch if this is possible to reflect the below.

run netsetup
call batch file to close Point
run custom .exe
run other custom .exe

Thank you,

Eric J. Lilly

For anyone interested.  I believe I may have found a work around.  I still need to complete testing on this.

I have utilized the taskkill command to kill Point before running my .exe's.

taskkill /f /im winpoint.exe

My process now looks like this ...

Install netsetup
Run taskkill command to close Point
Run .exe file
Run another .exe file

Thank you,

Eric J. Lilly
