Hello now it`s the second time i have the same old problem (4me)

Run("c:\sed-3.59.exe "s/find/rep/" c:\sedtest.txt > c:\neu.txt")

The command is between "...." but i need also "for the sed options" .

Can anybody leed a blind man, how can i handle this ? :">

Run('c:\sed-3.59.exe "s/find/rep/" c:\sedtest.txt > c:\neu.txt')

Run('c:\sed-3.59.exe "s/find/rep/" c:\sedtest.txt > c:\neu.txt')

Thx 4 fast reply but this was the first i have tried.

But the resalt is an empty file named like this: neu.txt'

I had the same trouble by creating a gui for dd.

Isnt`t it possible to use " only as character

StreamEDitor is an old Unix Tool also available 4 win an amazing fast

RunWait(@ComSpec & " /c " & 'c:\sed-3.59.exe "s/01.11.2006/02.11.2006/g" c:\sedtest.txt > c:\neu.txt', "", @SW_HIDE)

works for me, i dont know why only run don`t work ?

Once i thougt it was allright but the script wasn`t able to to his job again.

I will open a *.csv and replace the Ref-date with the system date. And this without handeling any mouse moves etc.

This could include more then 10000 replaces.

And why sed, i don`t know any faster and it works good 4 me.

Thx to all ans sry 4 my english

Run() will work fine... if you wait for it to finish... That is why RunWait() was created... You probably Run() it and try to access c:\neu.txt before anything is written... easy stuff really

Lar.

Ah RunWait wait till the CMD-BoX is open and send then the command and Run not ?

The box appears also by Run and Runwait (without hide )

I thougt Runwait waits for Exit and pauses only the script till RunWait is ended
