Josbe 1 Posted May 29, 2004 Do you want a input many times asking for extension? (Use a loop) Or display two extensions in a list?

bobheart 0 Posted May 29, 2004 (edited) well just one time asking what extension would be fine I think . Then If I need it again just run it again .all rename the txt file before i run it again. lol Unless you can input what to save the txt file as ?

SlimShady 1 Posted May 29, 2004 (edited) Here it is: DirCreate("C:\list1") $Extension = InputBox("List Files","Please enter the extension of the files you want to list." & @CRLF & _ "(Without a dot)", "", "", 350, -1) Run(@comspec& " /c dir *." & $Extension & " /s >c:\list1\dlllist.txt","c:\",@SW_HIDE) Edited May 29, 2004 by SlimShady Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bobheart 0 Posted May 29, 2004 (edited) Can you kind of tell me how you added the part where they can input what they want to search so Maybe can do it my self ? Thank you btw .. Edited May 29, 2004 by bobheart Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SlimShady 1 Posted May 29, 2004 I commented the script. Here it is: DirCreate("C:\list1"); <------- Create Directory ; The 2 lines below are for the inputbox. What the user enters is saved as $Extension $Extension = InputBox("List Files","Please enter the extension of the files you want to list." & @CRLF & _ "(Without a dot)", "", "", 350, -1) ;This line below runs a command with the user input: $Extension Run(@comspec& " /c dir *." & $Extension & " /s >c:\list1\dlllist.txt","c:\",@SW_HIDE) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
