using " in a command

[4your 0]

I am trying to create a service using the sc copmmand

The command itself will be

sc create " IT Backup" binPath= " & "$binpath"& " start="system"

$binpath is the path to the program C:\Program Files (x86)\ folder\file.exe and I am using the _rundos command to execute the command

in dos the full commmand is

sc create " IT Backup" binPath= "C:\Program Files (x86)\ folder\file.exe" start="system"

AS you can see I need to add a few " into the command itself but I don't know how to.

Thanks

look here under Strings: http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/intro/lang_datatypes.htm

In short, you'll need to mix them, single for declaring your string and doubles in the SC command.

Or you can double them as shown in the above mentioned link.

Hello 4your,

either you include your double-quotes in single quotes:

$string = 'There are "many quotes" here!'

Or you double the double-quotes:

$string = "There are ""many quotes"" here!"

thanks I managed it using the ' after fiddling with it to get the variable to work

Send(Chr(34) & "C:Program FilesProgramFile.extension" & Chr(34))

ascii character 34 is "
