problem with single executable

[Martin_SBT]

Ik, anyone can give show me code that would fix the following problem?:

My AMS pro is a single exe.

Sometimes (not on all PC's) the following lines doesnt seem to work:

File.Copy("Bin\\CIA32.exe", InsightPath.."Database", true, true, false, true, nil);

File.Run("Bin\\acclist.BAT", insightsystem, "Bin", SW_MINIMIZE, true);

File.Run("Bin\\CIA.BAT", "", "Bin", SW_MINIMIZE, true);


Anyone can help? Please?

thanks

Without a lot more detail...this is a total guess.....

Use the Sourcefolder variable just to make sure it is looking in the right place for the files.

File.Copy(_SourceFolder.."Bin\\CIA32.exe", InsightPath.."Database", true, true, false, true, nil);

Sorry,

yeah, i wasnt getting any error messages but the files were not copied at all.
My file.copy action doesnt seem to work at all. i actually tried what you said and it still doesnt work!

the code is:

File.Copy(_SourceFolder.."Bin\\CIA350.exe", InsightPath.."Database", true, true, false, true, nil);

try

result = Dialog.Message("Notice", _SourceFolder.."\\Bin\\CIA350.exe".." : "..InsightPath.."\\Database", MB_OK, MB_ICONINFORMATION, MB_DEFBUTTON1);
File.Copy(_SourceFolder.."\\Bin\\CIA350.exe", InsightPath.."\\Database", true, true, false, true, nil);

Yep Stefan's right:

_SourceFolder.."Bin\\CIA350.exe"

should be

_SourceFolder.."\\Bin\\CIA350.exe"

AAAAAAAAAAAAARG

thanks guys!

now i got a question. Why before adding the "_SourceFolder" part, it was working on some PC's an not on others. Anyone can put some lights on it for me please?


thanks

Note: the forums new look is very kool

Well it depends on where your app is relative to your folders. i.e. you can use

"\\AutoPlay"

or

_SourceFolder.."\\AutoPlay"

and depending on your project, they'll probably lead to the same place... Glad you like the forums, we also like it, it's been much better since we upgraded!
