Run with a cmd variable

[anandnz]

Hi Experts,

I hit the wall and this time trying to run notepad++.exe from a command prompt.

This is a sample excersice as actually wanted to run a big line of command for a third party. Any help is appreciated.

#include <File.au3>
$CR = 'notepad++.exe'
$command = " C:\Program Files\Notepad++\" & $CR
ConsoleWrite('@@ Debug(' & @ScriptLineNumber & ') : $command = ' & $command & @crlf & '>Error code: ' & @error & @crlf) ;### Debug Console ;
Run($command); THIS DOES NOT SEEM TO WORK, HOWEVER WHEN I COPY THE OUTPUT IN "start" "run" it works not via Run command HELP HERE

Remove the leading space in the $command variable,

so this:

$command = " C:\Program Files\Notepad++\" & $CR

becomes this:

$command = "C:\Program Files\Notepad++\" & $CR
