how to read volume of drive

[jimmyjmmy]

Hi, I need help on these 2 questions, and I am using the latest AutoIt scripts and SciTE4AutoIt3 Version 1.71

(1) I am creating a script to do stuffs from my external drive, what is the command to read the volume of a drive?

(2) when using Scite, when I goto "Tools\Go (F5)", it does not run the script, what must I do?

Thanks

Have you saved the file as filname.au3? this is required for SciTE to recognise the file as an Autoit3 script and to be able to run or compile it.

If you mean the volume label (straight from the help file):

#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <ButtonConstants.au3>

If you mean lower level details, like from WMI, you'll have to be more specific about what you want to read.

I found it in help file and What I mean is to find the volume label like this

$var = DriveGetLabel( "g:\" )

Glad you got it, and a quote from DriveGetLabel() is exactly what I meant to post.

What wound up in my earlier post was code from another topic I was responding to. Sorry for the confusion.
