First Gui Need Help

[Ben Sherrill]

Ok here is what I am doing. I am using the xcalcs.vbs for file permissions. What I am doing is trying to create a quick innerface so that when i run the exe a gui pops up and has a "browse" button so you can select the files/folder to change the permissions on. I have created this 2 different ways. The first way is with out using a GUI and just using an INPUT box, however in that one you have to type the whole sting of the directory. So I decided to take a stab at the gui innerface and use a browse button. It seems to work, however when its finished nothing happens. Meaning when you choose the browse button and select your file, the Var $sFilelocation is correct and is valid through out the entire script, but when it get time to dump the info into the Batch file before running it, it doesnt. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME WITH THIS! I have been working on it for 3 days and dont understand why when using the gui that the batch file will not write correctly.

Ok I have found one of the problems. For some reason it is creating the batch file in the root of the C Drive instead of the folder. Can anyone help me figure out why it is creating it in the root of C and not in the folder it is run?? What am I missing???

[SmOke_N]

That's a lot to go through, but the quick glimpse I took, looks like your creating/looking for files where ever the script is located. Try using a direct path rather than "file.bat", do "C:\Folder\file.dat".

[Ben Sherrill]

Yeah it is a lot to go through thanks for taking the time to look at it for me. Yeah I think my problem is that there are spaces when my exe file lies. I put it on a server and used UNC with out and spaces instead it had "_" and it worked. Thanks for the time.
