Docfxit Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 (edited) I am trying to input some text into an InputBox. Even though I type something into the InputBox nothing is ending up in the field. Dim $sequence = 00 ; $Folder="C:\Program Files\PMAIL\MAIL\Docfxit\" ; Live $Folder = "C:\Scratch\Scratch11\" ; Test ;$File = InputBox("Find and replace", "Name and/or path of the file", "Hierarch.pm", "", 500, 100) ;MsgBox(48, "Path\File", $Folder & $File) $File = "Hierarch.pm" $FileContent = FileRead($Folder & $File, FileGetSize($File)) $Find = InputBox("Find and replace", "What to find?", "FindThisText", "", 500, 100) $Replace = InputBox("Find and replace", "What to write instead?", "ReplaceWithThisText", "", 500, 100) $Confirm = MsgBox(65, "Find and replace", "You are about to change every instance of " & $Find & " by " & $Replace & " in the file " & $File & @LF & "Are you sure? ") ; $Replace shows here MSGBox(4096,"","Replace -", $Replace & "-") ; $Replace doesn't show here If $Confirm = 1 Then $sequence = StringFormat("%02d", $sequence + 1) FileCopy($Folder & $File, $Folder & $File & "." & $sequence & ".bak") $FileContent = StringReplace($FileContent, $Find, $Replace) FileDelete($File) FileWrite($File, $FileContent) EndIf I'm testing with this file named "Hierarch.pm" This is what is in the "Hierarch.pm" file: 0,0,"1E9E52F0:1E8A:FOL05BB5","72496884:My mailbox","AS/400 Setup" The Text I'm inputting into the "FindThisText" is "FOL05BB5" without the quotes. The Text I'm inputting into the "ReplaceWithThisText" is "AS400Sep" without the quotes. The $Replace is showing in the $Confirm = MsgBox line but it's not showing in the next MsgBox line. I can't figure out why. Thanks, Docfxit Edited March 20, 2013 by Docfxit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Your second MsgBox has the $Replace variable in the timeout parameter and no Title text. 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.
