Help getting the drive letter

[Doppio]

This is my first post, I'm not too familiar with AutoIT, but for what I have seen, it looks awsome.

I'm working on a bakup script, I want to be able to click on a Drive in (Folder Browser), and get the drive letter to show up on an Input box.

I want just the drive letter C not C:\ . Can anyone help me?

Any sugestions will be greatly appreciated.

do you have any code written already? i mean just so we don't have to create the whole script to show you the one part you're interested in... if you know how to get C:\ then you could just StringLeft($that,1) to get the letter...

Here's the Code.

Case $msg = $SelFolderBTN

$Path = FileSelectFolder("Choose a folder.", "")

GuiCtrlSetData($Textbox_1, $Path)

I think this will work:

$FullPath = FileSelectFolder("Choose a folder.", "")
$ShortPath = StringLeft($FullPath, 1)
GuiCtrlSetData($Textbox_1, $ShortPath)

It does, you can test it with this:

$FullPath = FileSelectFolder("Choose a folder.", "")
$ShortPath = StringLeft($FullPath, 1)
MsgBox(0, "Test", $ShortPath)
