Dronzul Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 Hi, i've just started at AutoIT programming, and need some help. I cant run any programs, let me show you the code i write when i write: ; ; AutoIt Version: 2.x ; Language: English ; Platform: Win9x/NT ; Author: A.N.Other (myemail@nowhere.com) ; ; Script Function: ; Template AutoIt script. ; Run, "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.exe" But when i try to run the AutoIT file, a window pops up and says unable to run it, check if backslashes are placed correct. I am not using a US version of windows, can that be why? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also if you just started using AutoIt use V3. It is much much much better than V2. Now about your question. Have you tried Run, "IExplore.exe" without putting the path. This should work because if you use Start>Run and type in IExplore.exe it works.

Valuater Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 Where did you get this ??? Run, "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.exe" help states as this Run("Notepad.exe", "", @SW_MAXIMIZE) so, you want this Run("C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.exe") see help for more details 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V3 is so much better.The difference between v2 and v3 is like even bigger than the difference between Windows 3.1 and Windows 95.
