Look in the help file at FileOpenDialog().

If you want to include variables in the commandline for 7zip, you'll have to read the help file example for Operators and Strings, so you can assemble a string properly:

Global $sFile = FileOpenDialog("Pick-A-File", "", "RAR Archives(*.rar)", 1)
Global $sDir = FileSelectFolder("Pic-A-Folder", "", 7)
Global $sExtCmd = '7z.exe e "' & $sFile & '" -o "' & $sDir & '"'
$iRET = RunWait($sExtCmd)
MsgBox(64, "Results", "7-zip extraction returned: " & $iRET)

You could change the file association for the .rar file type to run a batch file or AutoIt script that did that.

i want my rar file to be opened with my script and to be extracted to drive C. everything's ok, but i dont know how to get the complete file path.

you want to get the file path when you open

any file with your program or with command line , right ?

look in help file ( Command Line Parameters )

Command Line Parameters

The special array $CmdLine is initialized with the command line parameters passed in to your AutoIt script. Note the scriptname is not classed as a parameter; get this information with @ScriptName instead. A parameter that contains spaces must be surrounded by "double quotes". Compiled scripts accept command line parameters in the same way.

$CmdLine[0] is number of parameters

$CmdLine[1] is param 1 (after the script name)

$CmdLine[2] is param 2 etc

...

$CmdLine[$CmdLine[0]] is one way to get the last parameter...

So if your script is run like this:

AutoIt3.exe myscript.au3 param1 "this is another param"

$CmdLine[0] equals... 2

$CmdLine[1] equals... param1

$CmdLine[2] equals... this is another param

@ScriptName equals... myscript.au3

In addition to $CmdLine there is a variable called $CmdLineRaw that contains the entire command line unsplit, so for the above example:

$CmdLineRaw equals... myscript.au3 param1 "this is another param"

If the script was compiled it would have been run like this:

myscript.exe param1 "this is another param"

$CmdLineRaw equals... param1 "this is another param"

Note that $CmdLineRaw just return the parameters.

Note : only 63 parameters can be return by $CmdLine[...], but $CmdLineRaw will always returns the entire command line.
