Folder Log

Here is a script I made for fun. I wanted to learn simple GUIs and recursion in AU3. Feel free to use it if you wish. If anyone has suggestions, let me know!

Hi,

Bug? Not a big deal, it still works, but If I happen to include a trailing \ in the Source Folder spec. it gets echoed in the output as \\

Question, is it missing the first filefind?

$searchHandle = FileFindFirstFile($searchLocation & "\*.*")

I don't see this being added to or being written out to the log file.

@DaRam, As far as I can tell it does not miss any files. I have ran it on a folder with just 1 file and on my entire harddrive. In both cases (and many in the middle) it came back with correct results.

I will fix the bug with the trailing slash, but the only way there would be a trailing slash is if you type it (or select a drive letter ). If you use the folder selector, it fills out the field correctly.

Ok, I was curious about the sequence of FindFirst and FindNext. And realized the FindFirst just returns a success or error code to be used for subsequent call to FindNext.
