WesW Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Hello, I am new to AutoIt. I am trying to Copy a file from a server to a remote computer. i am hoping to make it work my putting the machine name in the inputbox and having the file copy. Can someone please help... it works file if I use this code $Input1 = InputBox ("ProjectWise Dll", "AutoPLANT 2004","", "") filecopy("Z:\Master\V8i_Start\acaddir1.bmp", "\\" & $Input1 & "\c$\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup") But I would like it to work with this gui...

enaiman Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Replace "Case $V8i" by "Case $Button2" You want the button push to start the copy not the inputbox. SNMP_UDF ... for SNMPv1 and v2c so far, GetBulk and a new example script wannabe "Unbeatable" Tic-Tac-Toe Paper-Scissor-Rock ... try to beat it anyway :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WesW Posted February 16, 2011 Author Share Posted February 16, 2011 I changed the case and the file still did not copy.. thanks Case $Button2 FileCopy("Z:\Master\V8i_Start\acaddir1.bmp", "\\" & $V8i & "\c$\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup") EndSwitch WEnd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gideon Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Maybe you will need the servername instead of Z:\ (in case you use netwerkconnection), so i.e. FileCopy("\\servername\Master\V8i_Start\acaddir1.bmp", "\\" & $V8i & "\c$\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup) Many times you need to think like hobby-bob:') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 You need to use GUICtrlRead($V8i) for the location you want to copy to, not the handle to the inputbox. $V8i is the control id/handle to the control, not the contents of it. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise.

WesW Posted February 16, 2011 Author Share Posted February 16, 2011 Can someone please give me an example to make this work. I am pulling my hair out! See first post for details... Thanks for your help While 1 $nMsg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $nMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit Case $Form1_1 Case $Label1 Case $Label2 Case $Input1 EndSwitch WEnd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 First of all, when posting code please enclose it in [ autoit] [/ autoit] tags so we can read it correctly, just remove the spaces in the tags, they're only there so that they show up on the page. Second, unless you actually NEED to fire off events from the labels (Lable1, Label2) or from something on the GUI other than controls you don't need them in your switch statement. Third, try this code in place of your code in post 3 Case $Button2 FileCopy("Z:\Master\V8i_Start\acaddir1.bmp", chr(34)& "\\" & GUICtrlRead($V8i) & "\c$\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup" & chr(34)) EndSwitch If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

WesW Posted February 16, 2011 Author Share Posted February 16, 2011 (edited) While 1 $nMsg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $nMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit Case $Form1_1 Case $Button2 FileCopy("Z:\Master\V8i_Start\acaddir1.bmp", chr(34)& "\\" & GUICtrlRead($V8i) & "\c$\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup" & chr(34)) EndSwitch WEnd I tried the above code and it did not work. any more suggestions. I also tried server name. If i place a machine name in the inputbox, does the GUICtrlRead($V8i) read what I put in the box and connect me to the remote machine.

BrewManNH Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Try this in place of your whole While...Wend loop: While 1 $nMsg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $nMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit Case $Button2 $Source = chr(34) & "Z:\Master\V8i_Start\acaddir1.bmp" & chr(34) ConsoleWrite('@@ Debug(' & @ScriptLineNumber & ') : $Source = ' & $Source & @crlf & '>Error code: ' & @error & @crlf) ;### Debug Console $Destination = Chr(34) & "\\" & GUICtrlRead($V8i) & "\c$\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup" & Chr(34) ConsoleWrite('@@ Debug(' & @ScriptLineNumber & ') : $Destination = ' & $Destination & @crlf & '>Error code: ' & @error & @crlf) ;### Debug Console ;~ FileCopy($Source, $Destination) EndSwitch WEnd Are you getting the output from the $Destination variable that you're expecting? If so, then you should be able to run this without a problem. If it doesn't copy the file then there is another issue unrelated to the script, probably a permissions problem, or the target computer is offline, or not running Windows Vista/7. You can uncomment the FileCopy line when you're sure the output is correct. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise.
