I don't know how to pass strange looking passwords to sqlcmd. In sql I use
'pass' and that works fine, but what to do with command line applications
like sqlcmd?
if password contains no " sumbol I can use "password"
but what if the password contains " . / - or spaces?
ex.
password = 'a-d ". a"'

sqlcmd -S myServer -U myUser -P a-d ". a" -d "myDb" -i
"C:\myProcedure.sql" -o "C:\temp\myOutput.out" --->whon't work..
