Which is the easiest way to append CMD to the GUI ?? Can anyone suggest me.

 

[pranaynanda]

Have the command in an input box and assign it to a variable and then take that value from input box and put it in the Run() statement.

@pranaynanda If we do in that way then CMD will run in separate window na??

I want it in the GUI.

For example if we press one button then cmd should run below the button in the same GUI.

What do you wish to achieve? If you do it my way, then you can have your commands run in cmd. You can get the output using StdoutRead or get it to display in any other GUI element you like.

Edit: And it won't run it in a separate window. You can do it like this:

$a=InputBox("Command","Enter the command") ;Enter command
$b=Run($a,"", @SW_MAXIMIZE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD);run the command
ProcessWaitClose($b); pause until the process completes
$Message = StdoutRead($b, True) ; Read the output
MsgBox(0, "Output", $b) ;Print the output in a message box

@pranaynanda - Sorry to disturb you again Pranay.

In the code you have given me will display the output in a msgbox na.......

I want the output too in the same GUI......

That's what am asking.......

Can you help me with this ??

You wouldn't want $b as the output - Try slightly modified as below.  

#include <AutoItConstants.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>


$a=InputBox("Command","Enter the command") ;Enter command
$b=Run($a,"", @SW_MAXIMIZE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD);run the command
ProcessWaitClose($b); pause until the process completes
$Message = StdoutRead($b, True) ; Read the output
MsgBox(0, "Output", $message) ;Print the output in a message box

$message is a variable that you can use in your GUI  (unless I'm completely missing what you want)

GuiCtrlSetData will assign Data to a GuiCtrl.
