triodz Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I am using this in a bigger script, but once I get it working on this smaller scale, I should be good with the bigger one. Code I am using: Run(@ComSpec & " /c c: && cd %userprofile% && echo %userprofile% > c:\NAME.txt","",@SW_HIDE) $name1 = fileopen("c:\NAME.txt",0) FileReadLine($name1,1) $data = FileReadLine($name1,1) DirCreate($data&"\TEST") Basically: Use CMD to get username path Write that path to a TXT file Read the path Use this info as a variable ($data) If I add a msgbox, it reads it out just fine, but the folder is not created. No errors occur and exit code is zero. As always, any help is welcomed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 If you're trying to get the path to the user's folder just use the macro for it, @UserProfileDir. 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.

Beege Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 @triodz Just so you know, I dont think you can run BAT commands the way you were trying. You would need to write the commands to a .bat file and then execute that file using Run. Pretty much anything you can't type into the command window (if it were open) wont work in the Run command.

triodz Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) Thanks Beege, I have figured it out now. I had issues including @UserProfileDir into the runwait command, but figured it all out. Runs like I need it to and I have a couple of happy users and a slightly impressed boss. My work here is done... Edited January 10, 2012 by triodz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
