Noob: need help on return value

[Elkie]

Please explain to me, can autoit return values from another application and the application receive the output from autoit.

Example:

APP1 run autoitscript using:

run("runme.exe param1 param2")

autoit(runme.exe):

dim $c
Select 
    case $cmdline[0]=1
                $c=$cmdline[1]+$cmdline[2]
    case $cmdline[0]=2
                $c = $cmdline[1]*$cmdline[2]
    case $cmdline[0]=0
        MsgBox(0,"Info","Please insert the paramater")
EndSelect

How may APP1 or other application reads/receives the $c value??

Helpme please

I have no idea on this as I have know experience with it, but I think what you're looking for is StdinWrite ()

Sorry for my dumb scripting as my posted code will always read 2 parameters

Another example using the posted code:

If i run from command prompt

C:\runme.exe 3 2

6 <----Output in DOS command window

I want the output just like that, so any application can read the output of the $c

Look at help for StdoutRead, and search this forum for other examples.
