I had a user complaining about his computer being super slow. So I did the usual checks for spyware and viruses and found nothing. Windows Task Manager showed CPU usage at 100% perpetually. While watching Windows Task Manager and closing programs I found the culprit. Turned out to be a program I wro...

This script as posted runs without any results so I assigned a value of 4 to MITCNTLG and got an error saying that EndIf was missing.

I think you can nest "IF" statements any old way that suits you but you must have an "ENDIF" for every "IF"

Monkster,

Thank you very much. I hope to try it yet this morning.

I'll let you know how it goes,

Thanks for the response Bob. I remember doing dir *. to get directory names only, but that was 20 years ago. Even then it was inaccurate because directory names could have 3 character extensions. Back then I wrote a batch file that did a "find" for the column that had the " that preceded all directo...

The following script, when run, will output the message, "This is inside the remark block" If continued it will then go on to the other message.

Hi, I'm trying to speed up a file finding program. I'm searching through a network drive that has 1200 directories and 200,000 files and is growing daily. A simple DOS search (dir p:\filename.ext /s) can take up to five minutes. On the other hand, if I use DOS to create a directory list (dir p:\*.* ...

What you are trying to do will not work. The WaitKeyDown function stops your macro until the specified key is pressed then your macro continues. Therefore your third line where you have attempted to collect the value of a WaitKeyDown variable might as well say "goto>end" because it will always be tr...

I'm not a programmer and may be way off base but it seems to me that if you wrote the application you have control of how it behaves. Can't the application be written so that a key press such as "enter" will push the button?

I had forgotten about this but it sounds like your problem might be related to this post: http://www.mjtnet.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=9191&highlight=#9191 Basically, you must move your variable definitions to a point in the macro that is ahead of where the dialog box is defined. Shooting in the dark...

Migro, The script is looking for the INI file in the %CWD% (current working directory). I never use "CWD" it's too easy to lose. I would recommend that you fully path the location of your INI file and hopefully that will take care of the problem. Whenever I use any files in scripts I like to list th...

C:\HfBooks\eBayPhotos\group- %GoupNumber% Is the "%GoupNumber%" typo in the forum or is the typo in your code? You don't explain how you're defining "GroupNumber" or what else may be happening to it between definition and use. When I have odd results like this I find it useful to plug in a MessageM...

Yes, that brings up Internet Explorer.

Just a thought... On the offending computer, if you look under Windows Explorer --> tools--> folder options --> file types. What do you see for the default application for the HT?? file types (exclude the Hyperterminal types)

You can't get macros to run when Remote Desktop is minimized but in my experience they will run fine if the window is reduced in size. Grab the lower left corner and drag its size down to as small as it will let you and the macro will continue running even though you are off working in another windo...

I know nothing about VB Script but I did run your script as posted and I get nothing.

Don't know if that is useful info for you or not.
