Hi,

assigning $args to $myargs actually worked :-). Thanks for this.

Calling the script with @work or "@work" returns the error I mention
in the first post.
Calling the script with '@work' (singlequotes) does return the
expected output. But how should I "prepare" my $args so that I do not
have to specify the singlequotes in the parameter?

I tried

$myargs=$args
$myargs = "'"+$myargs+"'"

but that returns the same errormessage as earlier mentioned.

Thanks,
