xmen Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 I am newbie in Autoit, so a lot to learn from, i got a problem here, after searching the forum inside and manual file, no answer for me, so i got to ask in here. FileOpen ("c:\abc.txt", 0) ; doesn't open it in notepad or wordpad for reading instead, i got to use ultra edit / notepad to open it run('C:\Program Files\UltraEdit\uedit32.exe "c:\abc.txt"') Hope someone to explain me, millions thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryFrost Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 The fileopen used in conjunction with FileRead or FileReadLine gives you direct access to the data in the file.

ezzetabi Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 if you use FileOpen remember FileClose too... Btw, you may find useful for starting files with associated program: Func _ShellExecuteDllCall($sCmd, $sVerb, $sArg, $sFolder) ;return will be a int greater than 0 if something goes wrong. Local $aRet $aRet = DllCall("shell32.dll", "long", "ShellExecute", "hwnd", 0, "string", $sVerb, _ "string", $sCmd, "string", $sArg, "string", $sFolder, "long", @SW_SHOWNORMAL) Return $aRet[0] - 32 EndFunc ;==>_ShellExecuteDllCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveR Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 If you just wanted to open the file for reading, this will work also: run("cmd /c start c:\MyFile.txt", "", @SW_HIDE) Will open it with the default .txt editor (works with xp) AutoIt3 online docs Use it...
