grasshopper Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 as of yesterday i am new to working with autoitv3. i think this is going to be a great tool for administering servers and workstations. i am unable to successfully execute the following line of code: Run ("$variclient.exe -config C:\Temp\IntegrityDesktop\source\Policy.xml") it generates the following error > Error: Unable to execute the external program. i beleive the problem is with the syntax - specificially in adding the variable to the Run command. the variable $var = C:\Program Files\Zone Labs\Integrity Client\ how do i properly add the variable $var to the run command above?
