t3mp3st Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 (edited) Hi, I'm pretty new to Autoit and I have a really simple question. I have 2 Vars, $var1 and $var2 $var1 = "C:\test\" (used "@WorkingDir") $var2 = "test.ini" How can I add $var2 after $var1 ? I want to have the full path =) The way I was used to make it doesn't work for AutoIt. Could you help me ? Thanks in advance !

Mat Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 The "&" operator joins two strings. e.g. "one" & 10 (equals "one10") Alternatively you can use the &= assignment, e.g. $var = "one", and then $var &= 10 ($var now equals "one10") You'd use in this case: $var1 &= $var2 See the helpfile under language reference - operators.

GEOSoft Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 (edited) This line bothers me a bit depending on your intent $var1 = "C:\test\" (used "@WorkingDir")at least the @WorkingDir part does. You must remember that folder Macros do not contain trailing back slashes and they are not quoted. So if you really meant to use @WorkingDir instead of "C:\Test\" then it should be $var1 = @WorkingDir & "\" EDIT. Damn! Read the post post by @mdeisel.

Mat Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 (edited) This line bothers me a bit depending on your intent ... $var1 = @WorkingDir & "\") I'm not sure who to be more worried about, he who actually posts working code (despite explanation being wrong), or he who puts a random closing bracket in the code... Onto a marginally more serious note, correct use of macros is very important, so you'd better fix it before you come to us saying it doesn't work.
