BroWniE BroWniE Fresh Scripter Registered: 2001-11-06 Posts: 20	All, I have a PHP executible that outputs a number when the user logs on. I need to grab this # and use it to determine which part of the script it should do next. Here is what I have so far. any ideas would be appreciated. $test=RUN "%windir%\system32\php.exe %windir%\system32\test.php" thanks Larry

Will Hetrick Will Hetrick Hey THIS is FUN Registered: 2001-10-02 Posts: 320 Loc: Harrisburg, PA USA	What you might try to do is send the result to a text file like $test = RUN "%windir%\system32\php.exe %windir%\system32\test.php > c:\php.txt" Then you can read the file out by $rc = open(2,"c:\php.txt",2) $php = readline(2) $rc = close(2) _________________________ You have at least 2 choices.

If the external program set an exit code, then you can do this: code: if @inwin=1 shell "%comspec% /c $CRCprog -v $FileSize $CRC $TargetFile >nul" else shell "$CRCprog -v $FileSize $CRC $TargetFile" endif $RC = @ERROR Because KiXtart seems to pipe the exit code of a SHELL'ed program back through to @ERROR. Then check check $RC and do whatever. [ 12 March 2002, 20:17: Message edited by: Howard Bullock ] _________________________ Home page: http://www.kixhelp.com/hb/

Click it, type "pipe" in the Words field, select UDF Library Forum, and you should get three hits. How hard can it be? _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more.
