	A plus symbol ('''+''') may optionally follow the -WSID parameter to indicate that when the specified WSID is already in use, Business Rules should increment accordingly to create a new ID. If the plus symbol is followed by the increment parameter, the increment specified will be used when it is necessary to increment. If the plus symbol is used but increment is not specified, 1 is used as the incremental default. If no plus symbol is specified and the requested ID is already in use, an error results.

If the plus symbol is used but increment is not specified, 1 is used as the incremental default. If no plus symbol is specified and the requested ID is already in use, an error results.

	The increment parameter may be any whole number from 0 to 999. If the requested -WSID is not available to assign, Business Rules adds this specified increment to the ID requested and attempts to assign the resulting sum as the ID. If the result is also already in use, Business Rules continues to increment in the same fashion until an unused ID is found.		The '''increment''' parameter may be any whole number from 0 to 999. If the requested -WSID is not available to assign, Business Rules adds this specified increment to the ID requested and attempts to assign the resulting sum as the ID. If the result is also already in use, Business Rules continues to increment in the same fashion until an unused ID is found.

	The -file-ref parameter identifies the name of an alternate Business Rules configuration (BRConfig.sys) file. This configuration file can contain important information that helps customize a number of configurable Business Rules and application options for the user. The actual specification must consist of a dash (-) followed by a path (optional) and file name. If -file-ref is not specified, Business Rules automatically looks for a file named [[BRConfig.sys]] and uses its contents as the configuration file.

If -file-ref is not specified, Business Rules automatically looks for a file named [[BRConfig.sys]] and uses its contents as the configuration file.

	Note that with more recent versions of Business Rules, the BR executable file may have a different name (NOT BR.exe). Additionally, you may rename the exe file to anything you like. This is especially handy if you have multiple BR versions on your computer. You might name them according to version or release number (i.e. BR41.exe, BR390k.exe, etc). If this is the case, simply start Business Rules by using the name of the executable file.

	The top path represents Unix and Linux versions of Business Rules '''"br"'''. Lowercase letters must be used to start up Business Rules from either of these systems.		The top path represents Unix and Linux versions of Business Rules '''"br"'''. Lowercase letters must be used to start up Business Rules from either of these systems.

	The bottom path represents Windows versions. "BR" must be specified in either uppercase or lowercase letters.		The bottom path represents Windows versions. '''"BR"''' must be specified in either uppercase or lowercase letters.

	A complete "statement" or "command" may follow the BR keyword. It will be executed as soon as Business Rules is entered. The use of quotation marks around the command or statement is not required, but it is highly recommended.		A complete '''"statement"''' or '''"command"''' may follow the BR keyword. It will be executed as soon as Business Rules is entered. The use of quotation marks around the command or statement is not required, but it is highly recommended.

	The "-xx" parameter represents the workstation ID. It may be a one or two-digit number from 01 to 99. The "-file-ref" parameter allows you to specify the name of an alternate Business Rules configuration file (BRConfig.sys). The system automatically tries to access a file named BRConfig.sys when no other name is specified. All versions of Business Rules (except the single-user Windows version) must access a BRConfig.sys or alternate file that includes a DRIVES specification. If such a file cannot be accessed, the start-up will fail.		The '''"-xx'''" parameter represents the workstation ID. It may be a one or two-digit number from 01 to 99.

	The "~~statement~~" ~~and "command" parameters represent~~ a Business Rules ~~statement~~ or ~~command~~ that ~~is to~~ be ~~executed at~~ start-up~~. The use of quotation marks around the statement or command is not required, but is recommended~~.

All versions of Business Rules (except the single-user Windows version) must access a BRConfig.sys or alternate file that includes a DRIVES specification. If such a file cannot be accessed, the start-up will fail.

	The -WSID parameter identifies the workstation ID that is to be assigned to this session. The actual specification must consist of a dash (-) followed by a workstation ID of up to three digits. If no -WSID parameter is specified, Business Rules automatically tries to assign a workstation ID of 1 to the session.		The '''-WSID''' parameter identifies the workstation ID that is to be assigned to this session. The actual specification must consist of a dash (-) followed by a workstation ID of up to three digits. If no -WSID parameter is specified, Business Rules automatically tries to assign a workstation ID of 1 to the session.

	A plus symbol (+) may optionally follow the -WSID parameter to indicate that when the specified WSID is already in use, Business Rules should increment accordingly to create a new ID. If the plus symbol is followed by the increment parameter, the increment specified will be used when it is necessary to increment. If the plus symbol is used but increment is not specified, 1 is used as the incremental default. If no plus symbol is specified and the requested ID is already in use, an error results.
