Quotes Problem

[Xavier]

Hi all,

I am encountering problems when using Runwait with dos command line.

See below (part of the code):

$Elements[0] = "Network printers"

$RepCible = "u:\Saveprofiles"

$TreeCreate[0] = $RepCible & "\" & $Elements[0]

RunWait(@ComSpec & " /c " & 'reg export HKCU\Printers " & $TreeCreate[0] & "\HKCU_PRINTERS.reg', "", @SW_HIDE)

Runwait won't work cause the Dos "reg export" command need to be in quotes (cause of the space included in network printers); the problem is that Autoit already use quotes for himself .

Can anyone help me please to allow the "quoting" of quotes??

Thanx in advance.

I left the msgbox in so you could see the results... Hope this is what you were looking for.

$Elements[0] = "Network printers"
$RepCible = """c:\temp"
$TreeCreate[0] = $RepCible & "\" & $Elements[0]

; RunWait(@ComSpec & ' /c ' & 'reg export HKCU\Printers ' & $TreeCreate[0] & '\HKCU_PRINTERS.reg"', '', @SW_SHOW)

; OR you can do this...
    
$Elements[0] = "Network printers"
$RepCible = """c:\temp"
$TreeCreate[0] = $RepCible & "\" & $Elements[0]

$sString = @ComSpec & ' /c ' & 'reg export HKCU\Printers ' & $TreeCreate[0] & '\HKCU_PRINTERS.reg"'; You now have QUOTES!!!

msgbox(0, "", $sString, 10)

; RunWait($sString, '', @SW_SHOW)
