Thanks a lot BR AnyB

Hello guys , always me ... I have again a little problem related to "my" script The problem is on this line shrink minimum=8704-----------------------------> Constant value 3 this part of the code is ok If StringInStr($aArray[$i], "shrink minimum:") Then $shrinkMinimum = StringRight($aArray[$i], 4) ;search the array for the words "shrink minimum" I will have shrink minimum: 8704 . This mean that inside specific variable i have correct numeric value for next step . The problem is that this number could be 4 or 5 characters . I mean that on different txt file I could have shrink minimum value 23456 But if i change "StringRight($aArray[$i], 4" and put 5 instead of 4 when I will have on my txt file the value with 4 characters i will have my variable with this value =8704 and this is not ok for my next step Can you help me to solve this question , please ? BRs AnyB

Hi guys , as you understand I use autoit very rarely ..... OK I don't know if this is elegant way or correct way but seem work fine I made a "preliminary " script to change/modify constant value1 row from size=400 to size1=400 and used JLogan3o13 code in order to have all data necessary ready to use for the next step

Hello . the first one it is a part of a loop all the tool function is - Calculate new storage size -> done - Grab all data ( constant ) from old txt -> In progress - recalculate a new storage size -> no problem for this part - write a new value on old txt file -> no problem for this part as you can see my issue is/was how grab all data That's it BRs An1B

Hi JLogan3o13 your file is OK for my purpose ( thanks for that ) , I would ask only a little and last help If StringInStr($aArray[$i], "create partition ") Then ;search Array for the words "create partition" Select Case StringInStr($aArray[$i], "primary size=") $primarySize = StringRight($aArray[$i], 3) Unofrtunatly constant value 1 and variable value have same name so this portion the script save inside $primarySize only 1 of 2 . Is there a way to save both ? Thanks again . BRs An1B

Hello , lazyGuys ??? LOL I will change with noSkilledguys In anyway thanks to all for your advice and code BRs AnyB

Hi Jdelaney , Thanks for the answer parse out everything right of the '='. --> I have different "=" on my txt file and many of these are not necessary please could you make an example based on my file ?? Thanks a lot AnyB.

Hi Careca , first for all thanks for your reply . and yes you are right at the end is only mathematic step but my main problem is how "grab" constant values and how put the variable number on correct position Can you make an example ...if possible ? Thanks again AnyB,
