Can you post the actual code you use for your Run statement?

[michcio]

here it is sry:

Run("FitCD.exe","D:\DVD-making Program")

[martin]

here it is sry:

Run("FitCD.exe","D:\DVD-making Program")

I think it is because you need to give the full path to the exe because when you ask windows to run FitCD.exe it will search the current folder and the folders in the PATHS environmental variable etc but it won't look in D:\DVD-making Program. So you need to say this

Run("D:\DVD-making Program\FitCD.exe","D:\DVD-making Program")

[michcio]

ah yes! it works fine now =) thanks...I thought that when writing the "dir" it will search in that folder ... but yeah full shortcut =)

thank you!!

Hi there,

Are you sure that FitCD.exe is in D:\DVD-making Program?

Try:

ShellExecute ( "FitCD.exe" , "" , "D:\DVD-making Program")

yes I'm sure, but shall I not write like martin said? or do you mean that it should work without the shortcut in the "title"-field?

the shellexecute command works perfectly as well btw

Remember the best script is the one that works

Try ControlCommand

And use AU3Info from SciTe to get control's discription

[michcio]

so you mean like this then?:

ControlCommand("FitCD v1.2.8", "PAL", "TCheckBox6", "Check", "")

it doesn't work why?

Hi again,

Check the window description (Fitcd v.1.2.8), the rest of the command sounds good.

thank you for answering again

hm but that's what Window Info is showing me under Basic Window Info -> titel

isn't that what I should write in the title argument ?

I have seen the example with notepad where they write : ControlCommand("[CLASS:Notepad]", "", "Edit1", "GetLineCount", "")

so I thought maybe to take the class instead and I wrote: ControlCommand("[CLASS:TMainForm]", "PAL", "TCheckBox6", "Check", "")... but it still doesn't work

ah!!!

when adding this to my code it works perfectly:

WinWait("FitCD v1.2.8")

ControlCommand("FitCD v1.2.8","PAL", "TCheckBox6", "Check", "")
