datkewlguy Posted March 12, 2005 Share Posted March 12, 2005 Hey is it possible to scan the floppy drive for a certain file without getting that "Error...please insert a disk" I figure that this could be accomplished if there was a way for autoit to check if there was a disk there and therefore not search for a file wihtout there being a disk inserted. This would likely eliminate this problem. I don't know if there is a better way or if that one is even possible, I just need to be able to search my floppy drive for a file. Does anyone know how/if this can be achieved with autoit? Thanks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberSlug Posted March 12, 2005 Share Posted March 12, 2005 You can also try "dir a:" at the command prompt. Maybe redirect the output to a file Run(@ComSpec & " /c dir a: > C:\tempFloppyStatus.txt", "", @SW_HIDE) or use the StdIO-enabled beta AutoIt versions? Something else that might work is an AdlibEnable function that checks for (and dismisses) the "Error... please insert a disk" window.
