Ghost21 Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 IF I use run to add a printer $printer = "Canon ir3570 PCL5E" Run(@WindowsDir & '\system32\RunDll32.EXE printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /c\\' & GUICtrlRead($Input5) & ' /in\\purcell /n\\server\' & $printer) it gives me an error cause it loses the "ir3570 PCL5E" and just shows the "Canon" now if I use the shellexecute with the same command it shows " Canon ir3570 PCL5E " but can't find the rundll.exe or a part of it to run the whole command correctly ... I even tried the @comspec " /c" HELP!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james3mg Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 (edited) IF I use run to add a printer $printer = "Canon ir3570 PCL5E" Run(@WindowsDir & '\system32\RunDll32.EXE printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /c\\' & GUICtrlRead($Input5) & ' /in\\purcell /n\\server\' & $printer) it gives me an error cause it loses the "ir3570 PCL5E" and just shows the "Canon" now if I use the shellexecute with the same command it shows " Canon ir3570 PCL5E " but can't find the rundll.exe or a part of it to run the whole command correctly ... I even tried the @comspec " /c" HELP!!!!!!!!!!Could be that the spaces are goofing it up...try Run('"' & @WindowsDir & '\system32\RunDll32.EXE" printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /c\\' & GUICtrlRead($Input5) & ' /in\\purcell /n\\server\"' & $printer & '"')? Edit: I put the quotes around $printer in the wrong place. Note that depending on what your $Input5 reads, you may need quote marks on either side of that as well, though it looks like you might have to put it before the start of the UNC path (that is, before the \\), if I'm seeing what you're doing correctly.)

james3mg Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Nope it still only gets the 'Canon' but nothing after the spaceDang, I edited that post 3 times and still go it wrong. Try: Run('"' & @WindowsDir & '\system32\RunDll32.EXE" printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /c"\\' & GUICtrlRead($Input5) & '" /in\\purcell /n"\\server\' & $printer & '"')and let me know if that works better.

GEOSoft Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 $printer = '"Canon ir3570 PCL5E"' Run("RunDll32.EXE printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /c\\" & GUICtrlRead($Input5) & ' /in\\purcell /n\\server\' & $printer) I set the Double quotes in $Printer by enclosing them inside the single quotes. @WindowsDir & "\System32\" was removed because if you are running XP then that is already set in the path environment and would have been better as @SystemDir & "\RunDll32.exe" in any event. Alternate 1 $printer = "Canon ir3570 PCL5E" $cStr = GUICtrlRead($Input5) & ' /in\\purcell /n\\server\' & $Printer Run (RunDll32.EXE printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /c\\" & Chr(34) & $cStr & Chr(34)) George Question about decompiling code?
