SlimShady Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 I would like to parse strings that contain AutoIt macros. The following does not work. Does anyone have a solution? $Cmd = '@SystemDrive & "\Directory"' $val = Execute('String(' & $Cmd & ')') MsgBox(64, Default, $val) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny35d Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 I believe this is what you want$Cmd = '@SystemDir & "\Directory"' $val = Execute('String(' & $Cmd & ')') MsgBox(64, Default, $val)I check the help file I didn't see any macro call @SystemDrive so I change it to @SystemDir and work fine...

Valuater Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 this seems to get the same results $Cmd = '@SystemDir & "\Directory"' $val = Execute(String( $Cmd )) MsgBox(64, Default, $val) ??? 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlimShady Posted November 15, 2005 Author Share Posted November 15, 2005 This too. $Cmd = '@SystemDir & "\Directory"' $val = Execute($Cmd) MsgBox(64, Default, $val) So it is possible! Thank you all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
