9h0s7 Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Greetings all. I have written several autoit scripts to co inside with WPI to virtual automate the process of re-installing software on customers computer (I work at a computer repair store where formats happen alot). Anyway, it all works great across the network, but there have been times where I (or the other people using it) do not have access to the shared folder. This is where a flash drive comes in to play. What I need to do is rewrite my scripts to run from a flash drive, but the drive letter is hardly ever the same, and the WPI is in a different directory then the scripts, complicating this even further. Let me give an example. (drive letter):\wpi\wpi.exe [program runs, user selects options - installation starts - wpi calls autoit scripts] (drive letter):\auto\(name of script).exe Any ideas???

Bert Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 maybe use the macro @ScriptDir. Also, I have a tool that will work great for you in solving your problem. I'll PM you the script.

9h0s7 Posted July 10, 2007 Author Share Posted July 10, 2007 I'd rather not redo the whole process and switch to another method. I had to pull some teeth to get the other techs to 'covert' from their old school ways. Pulling a new program on them, wouldn't be very nice of me lol. I think the @ScriptDir could work. I'll have to make some minor changes but in the long run I think this method will work best. I'll post a follow up on how things turn out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9h0s7 Posted July 18, 2007 Author Share Posted July 18, 2007 the @ScriptDir worked great and my post installer dvd works the way I needed it to. Thanks for your response. Case closed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
