I need to have PD automatically check for updates. I have written a program that does the work, including copying the updated scripts to the local HD, and adding new scripts to the registry. However, I have to have the users manually run the script. Is there any way to make this happen when PD starts?</P> Wed, 09 Jan 2019 06:08:09 GMT https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-q-a/can-powerdesigner-run-a-program-automatically-on-launch/qaq-p/774945 former_member570194 2019-01-09T06:08:09Z https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-q-a/can-powerdesigner-run-a-program-automatically-on-launch/qaa-p/774946#M229615 <P>AFAIK, there are two options:</P><OL><LI>Running PD with -x parameter, which will allow you to run any script from the very beginning, but this way is better for automated &amp; scheduled running of PowerDesigner.</LI><LI>You can use OnModelOpen event handler, which will trigger your script automatically after a model with extension containing this handler is opened.</LI></OL><P>Regards,</P><P>Ondrej</P> Thu, 17 Jan 2019 13:27:00 GMT https://community.sap.com/t5/technology-q-a/can-powerdesigner-run-a-program-automatically-on-launch/qaa-p/774946#M229615 Ondrej_Divis 2019-01-17T13:27:00Z
