It's part of the "coding" language your dealing with... I gave you some info that you could "look" up and it has working examples there. What more do you want... me to write it for you?

Coding is what we do though

Here is a sample that uses FileWriteLine to create the cmd file and then runs it.

FileWriteLine(@ScriptDir & '\test.cmd', 'pause' & @CRLF & 'Del %0')
Sleep(100)
Run(@ScriptDir & '\test.cmd')

or did you have some other idea for batch?

Run(@ComSpec & " /k " & $sExtCmd, @TempDir, @SW_SHOW)

Once you harness the power of that, you may never write another batch file ever again!

I totally disregarded what he said because of the below statement. No need as you say to write a batch or even do all those switches if your just trying to run 1 autoit script from another, all you need is

$iPID = Run(@AutoIt.exe & ' /AutoIt3ExecuteScript "' & $ScriptToRunNow & '" ' & $ParamToPass & ' ' & $Param2ToPassEtc, '', @SW_HIDE)

MHz has a good example of this in the Scripts and Scaps forum.

Is this thread an extension of the one you started at http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=31166 ?

If you want to specify another folder to the one you are currently using, just specify the complete path to it. The help file has a fantastic explanation in the #include description - get used to referring to it.
