Expanding %1

[tonysathre]

I have a batch script that I put in my SendTo folder so I can mount disc images by right-clicking them, and selecting the SendTo item, using Daemon Tools. This works fine, but it opens up a console window for a couple seconds while it mounts. I wanted to replace it with an AutoIT script so that window won't pop up.

I am using the Opt() ExpandEnvStrings.

The Run() function doesn't seem to expand %1 to the patch of the image file.

Run("%programfiles%\Daemon Tools\daemon.exe -mount 0,%1")

When I point an image file to this script, I get a dialog box from Daemon Tools that says that it could not find the image file.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Tony

Run(@ProgramFilesDir & "\Daemon Tools\daemon.exe -mount 0," & $CmdLine[1])

I tried this:

Run("%programfiles%\Daemon Tools\daemon.exe -mount 0," $CmdLine[1])

I didn't know I needed the &.

Thanks

I tried what you suggested and it didn't work. I got the same error message stating that; "Unable to mount image file. Unable to access image file."

Opt("ExpandEnvStrings" , 1)
Run(@ProgramFilesDir & "\Daemon Tools Lite\daemon.exe -mount 0," & $CmdLine[1])

Any other ideas?

Thanks,

Tony

Run(@ProgramFilesDir & "\Daemon Tools Lite\daemon.exe -mount 0," & $CmdLine[1], @ProgramFilesDir & "\Daemon Tools Lite")

That didn't work either. I did however get it to work with this:

Opt("ExpandEnvStrings" , 1)
$Var1 = $cmdline[1]
run('"c:\program files\Daemon Tools Lite\daemon.exe" -mount 0,"' & $var1 &'"')

I found this by searching the forum, which I should have done in the first place. Thanks for your help.
