Hi Belinda...

I don't know of any command line parameters for Windows FM that will let 
you specify the template .. however, if you only have one structure 
application that maps to the doctype of the XML file you're opening, it 
will automatically apply the associated template to that file. So all 
you need in your batch file is ..

    "<path>\framemaker.exe" "<path>\<filename>"

There are some batch processing plugins available .. DoBatch, DZBatcher, 
and Mif2Go (demo or full versions) comes with a plugin called RunFM that 
does batch processing.
