Script automation problems with running RUBY

[snoopy.pa30]

Help!

I am running an automation script that pieces together MANY programs in sequence. One of the pieces is a Ruby script that does some file merging and data manipulation (that I don't think AutoIT could do).

My problem is that when I run the Ruby Script from within my AutoIT script it does not work properly. When I run the Ruby Script manually it runs properly.

Any ideas??

Here is the line that calls my Ruby Script:

RunWait("C:\ruby\bin\ruby.exe C:\QPD\6Scripts\QPDProcess.rb ")

After the above processing I run a PERL script that works fine. The line that calls Perl Script is:

RunWait("C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe C:\QPD\6Scripts\addntdays.pl ")

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried ShellExecute?

Thanks D, but there isn't much in the way of documentation on the parameters for ShellExecute.

I did look in the FAQ, and it shows a couple of examples, but does not explain all the parms.

I have tried it - but it gives me an error - Unknown function name for the ShellExecuteWait

here is my calling line(s):

ShellExecuteWait("C:\QPD\6Scripts\QPDProcess.rb ")

ShellExecuteWait("C:\QPD\6Scripts\QPDProcess.rb", "", "", "")

ShellExecute("C:\QPD\6Scripts\QPDProcess.rb ")

ShellExecute("C:\QPD\6Scripts\QPDProcess.rb", "", "", "")

I Assume I have to "include" something to get the ShellExecute to work. But What?

But where can I find docs on it????

Thanks
