It is very easy to create command line application. Eg. you want to create a program that takes your name and then says hello. eg

Run > Testapplication.Exe "ParmanandSingh"

So this "ParmanandSingh" will be stored in command variable in code.
So now you can use this variable and can use its value any where in program

Eg.

msgbox command

This will print ParmanandSingh

Second Way - (in VB6.0 editor)
go to Project > project properties > make Tab > command line argument

In command line argument you can specify any value and same can be access using command variable in VB6 code.
