Exit Options

[Nomis]

Afternoon all, I'm relatively new to this and I have created a simple script that will create a new folder with the current time/date, this works well but I what to use it in a batch file, I'll try to explain but sorry if I don't get it right first time.

So I want to have the exit code as the option selectd in the command line,

EX.

if I added DMY at the command line

then the exit code would be the current Day/Month/Year. (14072010)

Is this possible ??

Thanks Simon

If $CmdLine[0] < 1 Then

MsgBox(4096, "Error", "No Command Line Options Detected")

EndIf

$HM = @HOUR & @MIN

$Div = "-"

$DMY = @MDAY & @MON & @YEAR

If $CmdLine[1] = "HM" Then

DirCreate(@WorkingDir & "\" & $HM)

EndIf

If $CmdLine[1] = "DMY" Then

DirCreate(@WorkingDir & "\" & $DMY)

EndIf

If $CmdLine[1] = "ALL" Then

DirCreate(@WorkingDir & "\" & $HM & $Div & $DMY)

EndIf

Exit

Hi John, thanks for that but now for the dumb question, I have been using %ERRORLEVEL% to show the exit level from the application but I'm only getting 9009 regardless the command line option I'm using.

Should I be using a different variable, I have added a MSGBOX at the end to confirm the exitcode string and that is working within the application but does not seem to exit with the correct data?

Sorry, I dont know, the % % things look like a different language to me.

If you are trying to get a string as an exitcode, you are on a losing street, you can only havs numeric.
