How to pass root path of the file to be uploaded in Autoit Script

[Sreenivasulu]

ControlFocus("Open","","Edit1")
ControlSetText("Open","","Edit1","C:\Users\srym\Desktop\FileUpload.txt")
ControlClick("Open","","Button1")

 

This is the AutoIT script written for File upload.

The text highlighted in Red, it is the path of the file that needs to be uploaded.But if want to execute my script in some other machine i need to change this path every time.

So can anyone help me writing this path in generic way so that i dont have to change this path every time running in different machine.

If the file always in users desktopdir use

ControlSetText("Open","","Edit1",@DesktopDir&"\FileUpload.txt")

If the file would be on the Desktop, you can use:

ControlSetText("Open","","Edit1", @DesktopDir & "\FileUpload.txt")

If the file would be in the same directory as the script, you can use:

ControlSetText("Open","","Edit1", @ScriptDir & "\FileUpload.txt")

I'm assuming you're looking for answer as this thread is over 5 years old?
