PCode Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Okay, so I have a made a program that opens up files and reads them, then uses the information in the files to decide what to do. What'd I like to do, is have it so that when I open up a certain file type, my Autoit program opens up with the file's path inserted into an input inside my Autoit program. The way my autoit program reads files at the moment is by using a fileopendialog to find a file, then pasting the path into an input, then using FileOpen to read the files. So can I get some info on what code I'm going to need to put into my autoti program so that it can do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I am correct, it would seem as if your first challenge is to assciate ur extension with ur AutoIt program... in Command prompt there is a command: assoc . open command prompt and type: assoc /? and it will inform you the rest... I apologize for being such a minute help if at all but I am quite a newbie :/ -Psibernetic, Psibernetic Computing (Omega Division) [sup]Psibernetic[/sup]My Creations:X-HideSecuracy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
