Install From Cd

[roadrunner]

Hi, I had a very simple scripe that worked in v2 but not in v3, it would look at the drive letters and return a drive letter of a cd. This does not work in version 3, has any one got any ideals. All I need is to put the cd into the drive and to install patches, these are sometimes in sub foldersand need the drive letter they are being installed from.

here is my old scripe which was written by another member on the forum.

;look to see which drive the cd is in

msgbox,0,autoit, INSTALLING PATCH PLEASE PRESS OK.

SetBatchLines,150

SetEnv,alpha,defghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

SetEnv,count,0

Repeat,26

EnvAdd,count,1

StringMid,char,alpha,%count%,1

;checks the charter in %char% and the file path to see if the files are in the cd selected

IfExist,%char%:\\patch\\patch1.2.exe,SetEnv,cd,%char%

EndRepeat

You better to use the DriveGetDrive ( "CDROM" )

Just take sometime to read the help. It is not a tutorial but reading is allways a good idea
