I'm trying to create an automated excel script and I want that script to send the output data to another system through plink for example. I've succeeded with opening the plink and connecting to the right server already so that's no problem. My problem is that I want plink to send the text that I keep in a text document and for that, I've been trying to make the "-m" setting work for plink.

Here is an example of the type of text i want plink to send:

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>       
<!DOCTYPE labels SYSTEM "label.dtd">        
<labels _FORMAT="TEST.layout" _QUANTITY="1" _PRINTERNAME="Printer 1" _JOBNAME="LBL101">
    <label>     
<variable name="Antal">56</variable>
<variable name="EAN_nr">514515615613</variable>
<variable name="Material_nr">1514651465</variable>
<variable name="Bäst_Före">220301</variable>
<variable name="Nettovikt">021523</variable>
<variable name="Artikel">Watermelons</variable>
<variable name="Produktionsdatum">210301</variable>
<variable name="SSCC">1565145156156165</variable>
<variable name="Barcode1">1451251416541513</variable>
<variable name="Barcode2">526154561</variable>
<variable name="Barcode3">54156165145145616</variable>
<variable name="Barcode4"></variable>
    </label>        
</labels>   

(Yes it is dummy values)

Anyway, I've not gotten the "-m" option to work, plink just accepts the fact that the option is chosen and doesn't seem to do anything. But it will complain if I put an invalid file path.

So if anyone would like to point out what I'm doing wrong that would be great!
