pcjunki Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 I need help with an array, (I'm hoping this is the way to go if not please point me in the right direction) I'm trying to make a script that will create pdfs from a random name word file. I have a vbs script that creates the pdf, and it's command line driven so I'm good on that part at any given time, there will only be 1 word file in c:folder this is what I have so far #include <File.au3> #include <Array.au3> $file = _FileListToArray ( "c:\folder" , "*.doc" ) $file2 = _ArrayDisplay ($file, "" , "1:1") ShellExecute("c:\folder\doc2pdf.vbs" , $file ) ;~ Sleep(4000) ;~ FileDelete $file ;~ ShellExecute("notepad" , "\\webserver\main_site\pages\index.htm")
Luigi Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 Something like this??? #include <File.au3> #include <Array.au3> Local $aDoc = _FileListToArray("c:\folder", "*.doc") For $ii = 1 To $aDoc[0] ShellExecuteWait("c:\folder\doc2pdf.vbs" , $aDoc[$ii]) Next pcjunki 1 Visit my repository

kaisies Posted November 10, 2014 Posted November 10, 2014 Please note _FileListToArray is troublesome at time, and _FileListToArrayEx is more reliable: '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>

M23 That's what I've read on these forums, to the effect of that _FileListtoArray() uses the windows search function, and doesn't always return expected results. I could very well be mistaken, just trying to help
Moderators Melba23 Posted November 10, 2014 Moderators Posted November 10, 2014 kaisies,The only time I can remember there being any discussion about this matter was in this thread - which discussed why there were differences between the returns from _FileListToArray & _FileListToArrayRec (read the topic to find out ). These differences only arise when using pretty complicated wildcard filters where the standard Windows search used by _FileListToArray can indeed return results which appear not to match - although in the vast majority of cases the return is as expected. I added something to the Remarks section of both of these functions explaining that the user had to make a choice between speed and accuracy if the required filters were that complex.
