Autoit3 Newbie Needs Some Help

[Slippy]

How can I use Run() to specify parameters to the .exe? for example this one program I have you can specify -GUI or -commandline, how can I use Run() to specify -commandline? I tried Run("file.exe -commandline", "C:\Directory\") and Run("file.exe" -commandline, "C:\Directory\")

Any help would be appreciated.

Run ("c:\epost\bin\EpostMS.exe -Install" ,"",@SW_HIDE)

OR

Run ("c:\epost\bin\EpostMS.exe -Install")

the last two are optional

or you can use

_RunDos

You could try it this way:

Run('"C:\Directory\file.exe" "-commandline"', 'C:\Directory\'")

humm I have:

global $file, $directory, $parameters
$file = IniRead("config.ini", "Settings", "File", "Error")
$directory = IniRead("config.ini", "Settings", "Directory", "Error")
$parameters = IniRead("config.ini", "Settings", "Parameters", "Error")

Run("$directory & $file $parameters")

but it actually tries to run $directory & $file $parameters, not what the variables are set to. I found this out by doing:

MsgBox(0, "Test", "$directory & $file $parameters") and it returned $directory & $file $parameters

MsgBox(0, "Test", $directory & " " & $file & " " & $parameters)

EDIT:

Run($directory & "\" & $file & " " & $parameters)

Ah. Thanks.

Run($directory & $file & " " & $parameters) worked
