I only need help in compiling another autoit exe from another autoit exe Since FileInstall() will not accept a variable for the source, you will have to edit the source .au3 file with literal path strings before compiling. Then, of course, you can just ShellExecute the Aut2exe compiler as per the help file: Method 3 - The Command Line The Aut2Exe.exe program can be run from the command line as follows: Aut2exe.exe /in <infile.au3> [/out <outfile.exe>] [/icon <iconfile.ico>] [/nodecompile] [/comp 0-4] [/pass <passphrase>] [/nopack] [/ansi] [/unicode] Long filenames should be enclosed in double-quotes like "C:\Program Files\Test\test.au3". If no "out" file is given the input filename is used with a .exe extension. Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...

DirtDBaK Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 I asked a simular question on the general help and support forum look it up I got a really simple answer, but If you need the script to be compiled on a computer that doesn't have AutoIT installed then you'll need to FileInstall the autoit.exe into your script. Good luck! [center][/center] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
