Ya, see if you've already written what you want to write. Measure twice, cut once..

Look at the time and date macros and use then in an If/Then statement to figure out the time and day to see if you should write to the file again.

Oh, I see, your link refers to a single post in the thread, mine to the whole thread.

Yes but you posted the entire suite, i only posted the network bit.

That's exactly what I posted in #2

Check this you'll need includes: _PDH_PerformanceCounters.au3 + _WinAPI_GetSystemInfo.au3

Glad to be of service

The link I posted is no UDF but will allow you to grab the functions you need for your script.

Are you sending the data yourself? Why do you need to do so? What have you tried so far? http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/network_traffic_view.html - NirSoft - Always a good choice plus all the utillites have command line switches with output formats such as XML. http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/5331/Retrieve-the-number-of-bytes-sent-received-and-oth - Requires creating a free account to download but the executable is 17kb in size and can be used in conjunction with FileInstall. http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/netfxnetcom/thread/26b20572-bd95-492e-af6b-3d573c4ec2a1/ - VBScript - This could be implemented in AutoIt plus it would make a cool UDF. This information should also be obtainable from the TaskManager - taskmgr.exe *Edit - I see that the cool UDF has already been created. LOL

Welcome to AutoIt and the forum! There are a lot fo examples available on the forum which give you the needed performance counters. One of them is

See my answer in this post. In short, since the engine is dealing with UTF-8 strings, only x00 to x7F works as expected. PCRE support inside AutoIt has to be completely reconsidered: PCRE now supports UTF-16 directly, making the implementation much much easierPCRE should definitely be compiled with UCP support (Unicode character properties)PCRE now enjoys optional JIT support (matching can be up to 6 times faster)PCRE callbacks need to be implementedOne should be able to store compiled patterns and not have them recompiled every time when they are used in loops
