PcExpert Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Hi all, I want to get the driveletter from the drive where the script is running from (an external Harddisk). So I tried the following: $1 = DriveGetDrive("REMOVABLE") MsgBox(64, "Drive", $1)oÝ÷ ضv'gßÛp¢¹ºÜ"¶aÆ®¶sbb33c³ÒG&fTvWDG&fRgV÷C¶ÆÂgV÷C²¤×6t&÷cBÂgV÷C´G&fRgV÷C²Âb33c³ I'm getting the same error. Whats wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
November Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Hi, Maybe the OS does not recognize like a removable disk, but as a hard disk. Double check!

Helge Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 DriveGetDrive returns an array so your messageboxes are of no use like that. See the example in the helpfile... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsaltyDS Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Since there is no @ScriptDrive macro, I use this function in many different scripts where I want the script to go to the @ScriptDir drive for something not actually in @ScriptDir: $ScriptRoot = _ScriptRoot() MsgBox(64, "Script Root", "Script root is: " $ScriptRoot) ;-------------------------------------- ; Function _ScriptRoot() ; Return the root of @Script dir, either drive or CIFS share path ; Call with _ScriptRoot() ; On success returns the root of @ScriptDir without trailing backslash ; (i.e. "D:", or "\\ServerName\Share" ; On failure returns 0 and sets @error ;-------------------------------------- Func _ScriptRoot() ; Find the script root Local $sScriptRoot Select Case StringMid(@ScriptDir, 2, 1) = ':' $sScriptRoot = StringLeft(@ScriptDir, 2) Case StringLeft(@ScriptDir, 2) = '\\' $sScriptRoot = StringReplace(@ScriptDir, '\\', '') Local $avScriptRoot = StringSplit($sScriptRoot, '\') $sScriptRoot = '\\' & $avScriptRoot[1] & '\' & $avScriptRoot[2] Case Else ; Case not handled: @ScriptDir does not start with "\\" or a drive letter. Return SetError(1, 0, 0) EndSelect ; Test the derived script root If FileExists($sScriptRoot & "\") Then Return $sScriptRoot Else ; Derived script root does not exist Return SetError(2, 0, 0) EndIf EndFunc ;==>_ScriptRoot Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...
