Pass shortcut arguments in .bat (batch)

In a .exe shortcut, I can use extra arguments. But how to pass those arguments in a .bat file?

To pass argument to bat or cmd file - you just run script with parameters, like this:

script.cmd parameter1 parameter2

Inside script - if you pass arguments - you will have %1 %2 %3 special variables available, and you can use them like this

echo First argument is %1
echo Second argument is %2

echo Starting application with arguments
application.exe %1 %2

EDIT / added later after discussion in comments.

To replace shortcut with command line file (cmd or bat) - create .bat or .cmd file like this:

"C:\Some Location\Some application.exe" argument1 argument2

In exactly the same way:

BatchFile.bat param1 param2 ...

Inside the batch file the parameters are addressed as %1, %2, ...
