TCC: Unknown command "False"

[vefatica]

The second and third commands below do the right thing, namely, start DEVENV with the specified solution. But the third one also produces an odd error message. It's the same after starting with /IIPS.

v:\> echo %@regquery["HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\ProjectMRUList\File1"]
P:\dumbdirsrc\Micro.sln

v:\> start P:\dumbdirsrc\Micro.sln

v:\> start %@regquery["HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\ProjectMRUList\File1"]
TCC: Unknown command "False"

v:\>

I have absolutely no idea what's going on there, but I don't believe you actually need the START command.

And you get a different error message if you use this syntax:

start /pgm "%@regquery["HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\ProjectMRUList\File1"]"

It isn't TCC at all. That junk is in the registry value. I suppose you could use SETDOS /X to dig out just the part you want, the filename.

Thanks Charles. I see. It's odd, but of no consequence. I wonder how DEVENV uses the "||False".
