Jewtus Posted April 28, 2014 Posted April 28, 2014 I'm trying to execute a copy statement from in my script (basically I'm using it to concatenate all the text files in a folder) When I give the explicit path it works, but when I try to use @scriptdir it doesn't RunWait('"' & @ComSpec & '" /c copy C:\Automation\AutoIt\db\log\*.txt C:\Automation\AutoIt\db\log\outfile.csv', '', @SW_HIDE) When I try to use RunWait('"' & @ComSpec & '" /c copy '&@ScriptDir"\db\log\*.txt "&@ScriptDir"\db\log\merged.csv"&', '', @SW_HIDE) it errors. I've been trying to figure out a simple way of doing this and I even tried this: $CMDLINE[copy @ScriptDir&"\db\log\*.txt" @ScriptDir&"\db\log\output.csv"] but I seem to be missing something. Any suggestions?
