Hi. I'm using the FreeCommander XE file manager here, and i'v written a script, which will create an empty, new file, after choosing an extension out from the Listbox. The listview code is not mine, iv found the scripts somewhere on this forum. I have no credits in it, because it was intended to be only for my personal use. But now, i have a lot of free time, so i remembered that i haven't posted anything on this forum, yet, so here is my first script: It should be compiled with the Autoit v3.3.14.3 . The compiled exe needs a folder passed as a parameter, so that it know where to create the new file. A Listbox is opened, with a selection of available extensions. After selecting and doubleclicking (or using the ok button), the script creates a filename (if specified in the config file) with increased numbers (up to 9999). If the filename exist, the counter is checking the next number, until the maximum is reached. This script uses an ini file for configuration, called "NewFile.ini" which should be in the same folder, as the compiled exe. NewFile.au3 #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #include <GuiListView.au3> #include <String.au3> #include <WinAPIFiles.au3> #include <Array.au3> #include <EditConstants.au3> #include <GuiEdit.au3> #include <ScrollBarsConstants.au3> Global $test[0][2], $hFile, $cmd = "", $cmdtmp, $tmptxt, $tmpinidir, $filesetting, $MouseX, $MouseY, $UseMouseX, $UseMouseY, $Edit1 Global $aArray[1] = [] $cmdtmp = StringReplace($cmdlineraw, Chr(34), "") If StringLen($cmdtmp) = 2 Then     If StringRight($cmdtmp, 1) = ":" Then         $cmd = $cmdtmp & "\"     EndIf Else     If StringRight($cmdtmp, 1) <> "\" Or StringRight($cmdtmp, 1) <> "/" Then         $cmd = $cmdtmp & "\"     EndIf EndIf If Not FileExists($cmd) Then                    ;Check if the folder exists, display an error message if not !     DisplayReadMe(1)     Exit EndIf If StringLen(@ScriptDir) > 3 And StringRight(@ScriptDir, 1) <> "\" Then     $tmpinidir = @ScriptDir & "\" Else     $tmpinidir = @ScriptDir EndIf Local Const $sFilePath = $tmpinidir & "NewFile.ini" $filesetting = IniRead($sFilePath, "setting", "filename", "MyNewFile") $filesetting = StringReplace($filesetting, ">", " ") ;msgbox (0,"",$filesetting)  ;Debugging $UseMouseX = IniRead($sFilePath, "setting", "UseMouseX", "1") $UseMouseY = IniRead($sFilePath, "setting", "UseMouseY", "0") If FileExists($sFilePath) Then     $aArray = IniReadSectionNames($sFilePath) ; Read the INI section names.

Hey guys. I've been searching, and reading the documentation, but I can't get this to work. I need to programmatically create a new Excel (xlsx) file in a directory. The examples I've seen online are using an excel workbook that already exists, and just renaming it or changing the file format. I'm sure it is really simple, but I can't get it to work. This is what I have: Local $oExcelTest = _Excel_Open() _Excel_BookNew($oExcelTest,5) Local $sWorkbook = @ScriptDir & "\testFile.xlsx" _Excel_BookSaveAs($oExcelTest, "testFile.xlsx", $xlWorkbookDefault, True); Sleep(50); I've tried making the 2nd parameter $sWorkbook, but that doesn't change anything. The script does open a new excel window with 5 sheets, but it doesn't change the name and save it.
