How do i get the #runbatch to work like here? I have Version 6.40.4.

I get error when i use it
Failed to run custom command '#runbatch'. File not found

Below are the values i use:
Command: #runbatch
Arguments: tried both C:\Program Files\AmiBroker\Formulas\Custom\Batch1.abb and C:\Program Files\AmiBroker\Formulas\Custom\Batch1.abb

If you get "file not found" it means that there is no file in specified path (path is wrong).

I tried both single backslash and double backslash in the path, the double backslash is being shown as single backslash by the website.

Batch1.abb exists at location

@erukumk did you try to enclose the path in double quotes?

"C:\Program Files\AmiBroker\Formulas\Custom\Batch1.abb"

Please follow this advice: How to ask a good question
You need to send SCREENSHOTS of error messages and settings dialog showing you have in AB. Chances are that you have typos that you can't see.

@erukumk, I haven't upgraded to the latest version (6.40.4), so my previous suggestion was based only on similar issues / articles in tool setup.

But I notice that the @Tomasz post you linked is dated March 12th and that the latest downloadable version of Amibroker is stamped: Version number: 6.40.4.6404 - Release date: February 2, 2022
(where he mentions a "new" version).

So, now, I suspect the command is not yet implemented in the latest released version.

@Tomasz has probably already added this feature to the version he is working on, and for that reason he may have replied thinking that, probably, it was a spelling mistake.

But, please, expect to find confirmation directly from him (or - if I'm wrong - from any other user who has found a way to run this #runbatch command from the tools).

@beppe is right. This feature is already implemented, but the version I am using is not the one what you have. You need to wait for the release (6.41.0)
