Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

Usage Notes
    ■ COMMAND$ converts all letters to uppercase (capital letters) and
      removes all leading blanks from the command line.
    ■ The COMMAND$ function can be used in stand-alone executable files
      or, if you are executing from the QBX environment, by using the
      /CMD command-line option, or by selecting Modify COMMAND$ on the
      Run menu.
