Parent Directory from @ScriptDir

Hi All,

I'm Having some difficulty Navigating Folders & was hoping someone could help out.

I Have a directory structure something like:

(please ignore the ".")

....<.......CD.........>

..|...........................\

..|.............................\

..|..............................\

Folder A................Folder B

..|...............................|

SCRIPT .au3...........FILE.vbs

I can get the current script path using "@ScriptDir", but I'm having difficulty trying to navigate to "Folder B". When I was using vbscript I was using the function INSTREV like so:

UponeFolder_tmp = Left(script_path, InstrRev(script_path, "\")-1)
UponeFolder = Left(UponeFolder_tmp, InstrRev(UponeFolder_tmp, "\"))

Any ideas / advice as to how I can do this with AutoIT?

Thanks in Advance

Like this:

Msgbox(0,'This will open "Folder B"',@Scriptdir & "\..\Folder B")

Msgbox(0,"Text Data",FileRead(@Scriptdir & "\..\Folder B\Test.txt"))

Place Test.txt in Folder B with a line of text and you will see that it works.

Ok, it sounds like it's solved, but I thought it would be interesting to mention that there's something simular in AutoIt as the "INSTREV" in VB

StringInStr ( "string", "substring" [, casesense [, occurrence]] )

When you use the StringInStr function with a negative occurence it starts searching from the right of the string.

You should use the function "_PathFull":

#include 'file.au3'
$FullPath = _PathFull("..\Folder B", @Scriptdir)
Msgbox(0, 'This will open "Folder B"', $FullPath)oÝ÷ Ù«­¢+Øìôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôô(ì(ìÍÉ¥ÁÑ¥½¸è$QÉÑ̸¸ÀäÈìÌIÑÕɹÌÁÑ ÑÈÁɽÍÍ¥¹Ñ¡¥ÉѽÉ䡹½ÁÉѽȸ¸Ñ¼µ½ÙÑ¡ÁÑ ÕÀ(ì$$$$$$$%½¹±Ù°¸(ìMå¹Ñàè$$}AÑ¡Õ±° ÀÌØíÍI±Ñ¥ÙAÑ °ÀÌØíÍ    ÍAÑ ô]½É­¥¹¥È¤(ìAɵÑȡ̤è$ÀÌØíÍI±Ñ¥ÙAÑ ´Q¡ÁÑ Ñ¼ÁɽÍ̸(ì$$$$$$$ÀÌØíÍ ÍAÑ ÀÌØíÍQåÁ´ÍÁÑ Ñ¼ÕÍ¥¸Í½±ÕÑÁÑ ¥Ì¹½ÐÁɽ٥¸Q¡¥ÌÕ±ÑÌѼѡ(ì$$$$$$$%ÕÉɹÐݽɭ¥¹¥ÉѽÉä¸(ìIÅեɵ¹Ð¡Ì¤è9½¹(ìIÑÕɸY±Õ¡Ì¤èQ¡áÁ¹ÁÑ °Ñ¡É½½ÐÉ¥Ù½ÈÀÌØíÍ   ÍAÑ Á¹¥¹½¸¡½Ü¥ÐÌäí̱±¸(ìÕÑ¡½È¡Ì¤è$%Y±¥¬¡=É¥¥¹°Õ¹Ñ¥½¸¹µ½¥¥Ñ¥½¸Ñ¼ÉÝɥѤ(ì$$$$$%Ñ¥ÑѽÁɽ©Ð¡IÝɥѤ(ì9½Ñ¡Ì¤è$$U9ÁÑ¡ÌÉÍÕÁÁ½ÉѸ(ì$$$$AÍÌÅÕ½ÐìÀäÈìÅÕ½ÐìѼÐѡɽ½ÐÉ¥Ù½ÀÌØíÍ ÍAÑ ¸(ì$$$$AÍÌÅÕ½ÐìÅÕ½Ðì½ÈÅÕ½Ðì¸ÅÕ½ÐìѼÉÑÕɸÀÌØíÍ  ÍAÑ ¸(ì$$$$ɱѥÙÁÑ Ý¥±°Õ¥±ÐɱѥÙѼÀÌØíÍ  ÍAÑ ¸Q¼åÁÍÌÑ¡¥Ì¡Ù¥½È°Õ͸ͽ±ÕÑÁÑ ¸(ì(ìôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôôô
