Hi,

I'm looking for a function that can find the order number of a printer.

I have the name of the printer but on different PC, the neXX number change :(

Thanks for help me.

Obielan,

Welcome to the AutoIt forum. :)

It sounds like you need you a RegEx. Please provide us with a few example printer names, explaining exactly what characters you want to extract, so we can develop a suitable pattern. :)

If you know the name of the printer, I would just do a quick registry search. Here is an example with one of my printers:

MsgBox(0, "", RegRead("HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionDevices", "Xerox Phaser 4510N GPD PS"))
