Hello, I'm having an issue, i need to send a + with a rundos command and when i do this it capitalizes the letter right after it and removes the +. For example the code reads: +r but the output is R. Is there any way around this? I have the command in quotes.

thank you.

Quick question, how do you know that the _RunDos command is sending an uppercase R? The window is hidden, and it closes as soon as the command is completed. When I ran _RunDOS("attrib +r") it set the readonly attribute on all the files in the directory, it didn't send a "R".

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

I hereby grant any person the right to use any code I post, that I am the original author of, on the autoitscript.com forums, unless I've specifically stated otherwise in the code or the thread post. If you do use my code all I ask, as a courtesy, is to make note of where you got it from.
