With the answer underneath we were able to pass some client
environment variables to the citrix published application, using
wfcrun32.
No we need to do this from within the ActiveX environment on a web
page. This environment calls wfica32 and not wfcrun32, so the /param
switch functionality is lost. Is there any way to pass client
environment variables from within ActiveX? Or can we modify it to call
wfcrun32?
