Hello!

There is a DOS-command that can show you some information about

the network, and if you dump that information to a text-file, then you could do

a FileReadLine and a StringRight to get the exact information you want....

I guess..

I dont know how to do the RunWait-command correct, but the script would be something like this :

RunWait ("net statistics workstation >> C:\Stats.txt", "", @SW_MINIMIZE)

FileOpen ( "C:\Stats.txt", 0)

$LINE = FileReadLine ("C:\Stats.txt", 7)

$INFO = StringRight($LINE, 7)

MsgBox(64, "Bytes received", $INFO)

This script will not work without modification and correction of (at least)

the RunWait-command, but I hope you can figure it out yourself,

or with help from anyone else here at the forums.

Note that the number on the StringRight-command might not always be the

correct one, because of the increasing number of bytes that you are receiving.

Well....good luck !

RunWait ("net statistics workstation >> C:\Stats.txt", "", @SW_MINIMIZE)

FileOpen ( "C:\Stats.txt", 0)

$LINE = FileReadLine ("C:\Stats.txt", 7)

$INFO = StringRight($LINE, 7)

MsgBox(64, "Bytes received", $INFO)

That can solve the run wait problem

RunWait (@comspec & " /cnet statistics workstation >> C:\Stats.txt", "", @SW_MINIMIZE)

Good Luck

Replace this line

RunWait (@comspec & " /c net statistics workstation >> C:\Stats.txt", "", @SW_MINIMIZE)

Make sure to have the space before /c

For WinXP/NT/2000, this basically makes it into

RunWait ("cmd /c net statistics workstation >> C:\Stats.txt", "", @SW_MINIMIZE)

/cnet?

Edit, or use the actual program name and path. But this won't actually make the file, as the secondary command interpreter is the part that sends the output to screen or file. But I thought it might be a good learning tool.

RunWait ("net.exe statistics workstation >> C:\Stats.txt", @SystemDir, @SW_MINIMIZE)
