Somerset Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 the extension (unc) by default isn't a windows executable. open a dos window and type in SET and hit enter. under windows 2000 i know to look for something that looks like this. PATHEXT=.COM;.EXE;.BAT;.CMD;.VBS;.VBE;.JS;.JSE;.WSF;.WSH all those extnsions are executables. i dunno if there is a way to intergrate the (unc) without having to call an external program.

ezzetabi Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 Good idea Shady! Standard windows cmd have problems if it start in a unc path!@beermanWhat is the meaning of you answer... Why should someone add .unc as executable extension?Maybe you should read what unc is: HERE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somerset Posted June 23, 2004 Share Posted June 23, 2004 oops, sorry was under the pretense they were wanting to execute something. with an extension of some sort that was not a native executable. try to execute an autoit script from command line without having to call back to autoit executable..
