Spaces in MSMQ name
by DrRask, September 30, 2021

How should the spaces be handled in the msmq name? example: Have a queue name called "transfer points day" the readme says: "MessageCount DIRECT=OS:MSMQSVR01Private$transfer points day 50 200" and it fails with bad command argument. Please advice?



Bug in the Arguments

If you're wanting to set high thresholds for your queues you'll need to edit the script and change all the CInt to CDbl.
