Displaying/Passing Returns

[JohnBailey]

How Do I display/obtain a return value from WinWaitClose?

Specifically:

The last function does not execute and I would like to get an error to be displayed via MsgBox().

How do I do this?

#include<.\Include\jClassOpenProgram.au3>
$firstProgram = "Total Service Manager  F:\TSM60\DATA\"
$secondProgram = "Adobe Acrobat Professional - [" & $fileName & "]"
closeProgram($firstProgram)
WinWaitClose("Total Service Manager  F:\TSM60\DATA\",2)
closeProgram($secondProgram)
WinWaitClose("Adobe Acrobat Professional - [" & $fileName & "]")
msgbox(64,"Finished Automation","The automated process is complete. You may now safely use your keyboard and mouse.",10)

Well, to quote the helpfile:

Return Value

Success: Returns 1.

Failure: Returns 0 if timeout occurred.

Returns 0 if bad regexp and @error=1.

Therefore, this SHOULD work:

If NOT WinWaitClose("whatever") = 1 Then Msgbox(0,"","WinWaitClose FAILED")

Kurt wow I had no idea I could write it that simply! One question does that mean it would be like

WinWaitClose("whateverProgram",2)
If NOT WinWaitClose("whateverProgram") = 1 Then Msgbox(0,"","WinWaitClose FAILED")

[JohnBailey]

Nope, should be:

$rc = WinWaitClose("whateverProgram",2)
If NOT $RC Then Msgbox(0,"","WinWaitClose FAILED")

THANK YOU
