Oops! I can't use an OR?

Howdy doody!

I just figured AutoIT could use the OR operand, but this function doesn't run! Or am I just doing it wrong? Oh also, I didn't search because I could just imagine how many results I would get looking up "or"...

IF @OSVersion = "WIN_VISTA" OR "WIN_2008" Then 
    $StartupPath = "c:\users\administrator\appdata\roaming\microsoft\windows\startm~1\programs\startup\"
ElseIf @OSVersion = "WIN_XP" Then 
    $StartupPath = "c:\docume~1\alluse~1\startm~1\programs\startup\"
Else 
    $StartupPath = "error"
EndIf

Oh, uh it works just fine if I take out the "OR WIN_2008" before the then.

Yes, you're doing it wrong. Programming 101.

IF @OSVersion = "WIN_VISTA" OR "WIN_2008" Then

instead:

IF @OSVersion = "WIN_VISTA" OR @OSVersion = "WIN_2008" Then

And also: @StartMenuCommonDir

OK that makes sense also. I don't use that other macro because the program needs to use the absolute path.

[jvanegmond]

@StartMenuCommonDir is absolute path.

ConsoleWrite(@StartMenuCommonDir & @CRLF)

Output: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu
