Submit Queue via Named Pipe
This option allows the user to write directly to FTSpooler using a pipe in place of a file, either directly from a suitable application program or by using command line Copy statement. A "suitable" application program will generally be a command line application, writing to "standard output device".
FTSpooler generates the pipe \\.\pipe\Queue_Name for users to send the data into. "." (dot) in the pipe refers to the current machine (on which FTSpooler is running).
For example, with FTSpooler installed on machine B with "pipe" in force to queue name "Sample_Queue", FormTrap generates this pipe: \\.\pipe\Sample_Queue.
To write to this pipe from Machine A, this is the pipe statement: \\MachineBName\pipe\Sample_Queue.
