Hello, this is my first attempt at scripting AutoIT and trying to utilize AutoIT's Gui.

I am stuck with a routine in the backup script that I'm writing. I got the initial backup buttons to work, but my restore buttons do not run to completion and does not give an error or copy any files. I get the initial prompts but the restore function does not run.

My only clue is the RestoreData function?

Please help a newbie.

P.S. If there is a way to detect the usb drive automatically or detect and grab the drive where the autoit app is run from, I would appreciate it. If there is a way to optimize or make the script run more efficiently then please give suggestions. thank you

Couple things I noticed, you will want to use $Data[$j] not $Data($j)

and I don't know if this will change anything but I've always done

For $j=1 to Ubound($Data)-1

instead of $j=0

*edit*

I've seen a number of posts on the forum about detecting a USB drive, but never really looked at them as I have had no need for it (yet).

*another edit*

I see why you use 0 now, you start the data in $Data[0]... you can ignore that part.

Thank you for your input. That 2nd set of eyes really helped. It seems to be working now, I did not even see the ()

I added this bit to get it working on Windows 7, so i could see it.

Win7 and Vista been very similar folder structure

Case "WIN_7"
        ;   $OS = "Windows 7"
        #RequireAdmin ;Requires Admin Authentication for writing to registry
        $userStore = "C:\Users\" & @UserName
        $pstStore = $userStore & "\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook"
        $pstCfg = $userStore & "\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Outlook"
        $myDocs = "\Documents"
        $myPics = "\Pictures"

One suggestion i thought off was have a button to backup to desktop in addition to the other two.

Nice piece of work
