Need to find the path of exe

Recommended Posts

I have an exe with name "erwin Data Modeler r9.7 (32-bit)_2332.exe"

 

THe lat 4 digits 2332 may vary and also the version number r9.7 also might vary.

So, how to write a generic expression so that the exe can be picked from the current directory {with any version (9.7 or anything) and any build number (2332 or anything)}

 

Thanks in Advance

Use:
StringInStr ( "string", "substring" [, casesense = 0 [, occurrence = 1 [, start = 1 [, count]]]] )
 

Kind Regards, Starf0x

But this we can find only one substring right.But the 32 number is fixed above.

I forgot to mention above, if it is 64 instead of 32 then the exe should not be picked.

Got it, Thanks @Starf0x

Func GetFileList($dir)
    ; List all the files and folders in the desktop directory using the default parameters.
    Local $aFileList = _FileListToArray($dir, "*")
    If @error = 1 Then
        MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "Path was invalid.")
        Exit
    EndIf
    If @error = 4 Then
        MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "No file(s) were found.")
        Exit
    EndIf
    ; Display the results returned by _FileListToArray.
    ;_ArrayDisplay($aFileList, "$aFileList")

    For $vElement In $aFileList
        if StringInStr($vElement, "erwin Data Modeler")>0 and StringInStr($vElement, "32-bit")>0 Then
            return $vElement
        EndIf
    Next
    return "0"

EndFunc   ;==>Example

EX: Flash Player 24.0.0.194.exe

Local $search = FileFindFirstFile("Flash Player*.exe")
If $search = -1 Then
    MsgBox(0, "Error", "No files/directories matched the search pattern")
    Exit
Else
    Local $file = FileFindNextFile($search)
    $Exe = @ScriptDir & '\' & $file
    ShellExecuteWait($Exe, '-install')
    MsgBox(64, 'FlashPlayer', 'Complete!')
EndIf

This is what i use to install flash player, only the numbers after this change, so this works every time.

I guess for you you could use
 

FileFindFirstFile("erwin Data Modeler*.exe")

StringInStr($vElement, "32-bit")>0 Then
