DLL Registration script Windows 7.

[Islmike]

Hi All

Let me first say I am a newbie, loving this AutoIT program and thank you all in advance for your assistance.

I am working on a new version of an application going from WinXP to Win7.

I have all the necessary pieces together and the app installs fine, however part of the process I need to register a dll. Here are the scripts I am using and the results respectively;

1st Script "DOES NOT WORK":

#RequireAdmin

Run(@ComSpec & " /c " & "C:\Windows\SyswWOW64\Regsvr32 C:\BIZPlanning\photos\csImageFile\csImageFile.dll", @SW_HIDE)

___________________________________________________________________________________________

2nd Scritp "Success BUT":

#include <Process.au3>

Local $rc = _RunDos("C:\Windows\SysWOW64\regsvr32 C:\BizPlanning\photos\csImageFile\csImageFile.dll")

Works but it puts a popup that requires the user to click ok. I would like to have possibly run silently.

___________________________________________________________________________________________

Again thank you for any help provided.

Hi IsImike

Try it this way

#RequireAdmin
Run(@ComSpec & " /c C:\Windows\SyswWOW64\Regsvr32 C:\BIZPlanning\photos\csImageFile\csImageFile.dll", "", @SW_HIDE)

#RequireAdmin
ShellExecute(@ComSpec, "/c C:\Windows\SyswWOW64\Regsvr32 C:\BIZPlanning\photos\csImageFile\csImageFile.dll", "open", "", @SW_HIDE)

Kind regards

That's damn easy:

$mydll = 'C:BIZPlanningphotoscsImageFilecsImageFile.dll'
ShellExecute('regsvr32.exe /s ' & $mydll)

The regsvr32 has a silent switch...

Islmike,

Please take care in future to post in the correct section of the forum. This section is for useful example scripts and is not, as the banner at the top clearly states, "a general support forum!".

I will move this thread to the section that in fact is!

Thanks to Wilcop and MKISH for responding so quickly.

The script below actually worked, all I needed to do is add the /s after the regsvr32 to make it silent.

#include <Process.au3>

Local $rc = _RunDos("C:\Windows\SysWOW64\regsvr32 /s C:\BizPlanning\photos\csImageFile\csImageFile.dll")

My apologies to Melba23 for posting in the wrong area.

Thank you all again for the help I really appreciate it.
