brewdude6 brewdude6 Hey THIS is FUN Registered: 2000-10-21 Posts: 280 Loc: Nashville, TN	Any idea why I would get this error using this code below? Code: $mydocuments=ReadValue("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders","Personal") $cmd='$installfolder\xxcopy "'+$mydocuments+'" "'+$udocuments+'" /bi /s /yy /oa$uxxcopylog' ? 'Executing : '+$cmd Shell '%COMSPEC% /c '+$cmd If @error <>0 $writelog = WriteLog2($logfile,"@USERID on @WKSTA with @serror My Documents Copy",1) EndIf _________________________ I could have made a neat retort but didn't, for I was flurried and didn't think of it till I was downstairs. -Mark Twain

Code: $site = "Fu.bar" shell '%comspec% /c ping -n 1 ' + $site + ' > nul' if @error ? "Unable to ping " + $site else ? $site + " is up" endif Also, while using variables inside a string is frowned upon it is valid kix code unless one uses the "NoVarInString" option. Double check your xxcopy syntax, I think your problem is in there.
