Starter Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 If else is giving me some problems and exiting programs it would seem to me you just type exit at the end to close a process but this doesnt work also timing an event to run say once a day if someone could post that function that would help thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

covaks Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 It's hard to know what you are talking about if you don't post any sample code. To run something once a day, a scheduled task is probably the easiest way to go. Or you could try something like this: While 1 If @Hour = 15 AND @Min = 15 Then msgbox(1,"","Time is " & @Hour & ":" & @Min) Exit EndIf Sleep(1000) WEnd Will popup the message box at 3:15 PM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weaponx Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 I'm obligated to do this, since people like to make so much extra work for themselves. If you do RunWait("ccleaner.exe /auto"), it will clean everything silently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GEOSoft Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 You can't go through life without taking risks.No but my computer will function better if I don't take risks with the software I run.

When are people ever going to learn that the registry does not need cleaning, at least not since the 9x days. Registry cleaning very often spells disaster for an MS Office installation.
