File Count

[Marspidey]

I have this same function on another computer where the script works but when I try adding the script to another computer it won't recognize that the files are there. Any help is appreciated.

$filecount = ControlListView ( "C:\filecheck", "", "SysListView321", "GetItemCount") ;Check for new files
        If $filecount <= 0 Then ;If no new files exit program
            $filecheck = False  ;Set new files status to false

"C:\filecheck" is the, full, correct title of the window you are reading? Including the case?

Yes, the title is correct.

Using the AutoIt Window Info Tool, can you verify the window title, as well as the SysListView id? For instance, make sure it isn't something weird like SysListView322.

They're correct.

Perhaps this would work better?

#include <File.au3>
$aFiles = _FileListToArray("C:\filecheck")
$filecount = $aFiles[0] ;Check for new files
If $filecount = 0 Then ;If no new files exit program
   $filecheck = False  ;Set new files status to false
...

   $filecheck = False  ;Set new files status to false

Just tried that and it didn't work. Any other suggestions?

How many files are in this C:\filecheck directory?

Have a look at DirGetSize() in the helpfile ..

Oh...I thought that only got the file size, but now I see it can get more. That's better and shorter than my way. Thanks for the tip.

I got it working. Thanks to you all.
