redfive19 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 Hello all, Here's what I want to do. I want to scan all the drives in my system ('ALL') and look for particular drive labels. When I find that drive label, I want to return the drive letter it is associated with. I know that this involves using DriveGetDrive and DriveGetLabel but I can't wrap my head around For - Next. I need it to find TWO partitions and return TWO different ones. In this case, one partition will always be labeled 'Image' and one will always be labeled 'Transfer'. Any ideas? Sorry if it's been asked before, I searched but couldn't find an answer to it. Thanks ahead of time! -redfive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenobiologist Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 HI, try this: MsgBox(0, "", getDrive("transfer")) MsgBox(0, "", getDrive("image")) Func getDrive($label = "Windows") $var = DriveGetDrive( "all") If Not @error Then For $i = 0 To $var[0] If DriveGetLabel($var[$i] & "\") = $label Then Return $var[$i] EndIf Next EndIf EndFunc ;==>getDrive So long, Mega Scripts & functions Organize Includes Let Scite organize the include files Yahtzee The game "Yahtzee" (Kniffel, DiceLion) LoginWrapper Secure scripts by adding a query (authentication) _RunOnlyOnThis UDF Make sure that a script can only be executed on ...

GEOSoft Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 (edited) MsgBox(0, "", getDrive("transfer")) MsgBox(0, "", getDrive("image")) Func getDrive($label = "Windows") $var = DriveGetDrive( "all") If Not @error Then For $i = 0 To $var[0] If DriveGetLabel($var[$i] & "\") = $label Then Return $var[$i] EndIf Next EndIf EndFunc;==>getDriveAnd why $var[$i] & "\" ? For $i = 0 To $var[0] If DriveGetLabel($var[$i]) = $label Then Return StringUpper($var[$i]) EndIf Next Works just as well BTW StringUpper($var[$i]) is to make it pretty Edited May 24, 2006 by GEOSoft George Question about decompiling code?

Although either method still returned the same result for me, I could forsee a possible problem on some systems when using it. George Question about decompiling code?

Either of you guys ever done that?Post part of the log file and the file name and I'll have a look at it. I don't even see a diskpart log on mine but I could be looking for the wrong file.
