Call the cmd line in VB to JS (Some Indesign autour :))

Hi all

I called a shell script in applescript once but I cannot get it to work in VB. I said that I don't know a thing in VB so all I tried was copy and paste the code.

I have to launch a command window to transfer files (or at least set up a line of cmd, the helpdesk will give me). This call will come at the end of a writing of indesign (here go us).

My intention is to use doScript and run applescript or vb depending on the system. May biggest concern is the call of the cmd from windows with VB.

Any ideas?

TIA Loïc

Hey love!

Try this:

var scpt = "Dim oShell\
Set oShell = CreateObject (\"WScript.Shell\")\
oShell.run \"cmd /K CD C:\ & Dir\"\
Set oShell = Nothing";

app.doScript(scpt, ScriptLanguage.visualBasic);

It works here

  • How to determine the version of ogg of the cmd line

    I am writing a perl script to check the inventory of the machine and so far I can't find the software installed on the machine but
    I have trouble finding if ogg is installed and it has version. So far I'm capturing the output of two commands:

    My $rpmResult is qx (rpm - qa - queryformat '% {SIZE} % {NAME} % {VERSION} \n');.

    My $opatchResult = qx (opatch lsinventory-detail);

    How can I capture information from ogg?

    Thank you

    Paul.

    From the command line, "-v" option.

    All ggsci, mgr, extract, etc. must report the same version in a single installation. Example:

  • to access shared folders on the cmd line?

    Hi, I'm trying to copy files to the shared folders on the command line. some research I found a few references to use the net use command to associate files with a virtual drive:

    NET use z:
    . host\y (where there is the shared folder)

    or

    NET use z:
    . host\shared folders\y

    However, the syntax is wrong, or this is the wrong approach entirely. pointers would be much appreciated

    Thank you!

    Either you use:

    "NET use."
    VMware-host\Shared files.

    This will be the map a network drive that contains folders in it...

    ... or you use the deep link:

    "NET use."
    VMware-host\Shared Folders\vmware»

    to directly map a shared folder as a network drive.

    BTW: The best way to know what you need on the command line is to map the "Shared Folders" in law by clicking on it in Windows Explorer and then run "net use" to see how it has been mapped.

  • In a sequence of CTF, is it possible to obtain a text file of sequence clips display? There is a display of text file for clips (cmd-9). Zoom the timeline cancels the ability to see the whole sequence of the time line.

    In a sequence of CTF, is it possible to obtain a text file of clips in sequences display (name and duration)? There is a display of text file for clips (cmd-9). Zoom the timeline makes this visible annotation for shorts, cancels but the ability to see the whole sequence of the time line. Of course, it would help my editing.

    TIA

    In Final Cut Pro 7, you can use editing > find command to search on used clips in the sequence. See if there is an equivalent command in FCE. Unfortunately, I can't determine that at first hand on my system. (In addition, if you are still interested whereas FCP X, there the so-called Timeline index which provides quick access to a list of markers, clips, effects, etc..)

    Good luck.

  • Firefox does not open after the update. Cannot open the profile technical, even when you use the directory in cmd line path

    I'm using Firefox on a Windows 7 computer. Firefox does not open after the last update. I read the help articles and it seems that I need to create a new profile because my settings were probably corrupted. I'm unable to open the profile technical, even when you use the directory in cmd line path. I tried the following commands in the command line:

    Firefox Pei
    "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla" PEI

    Nothing happens with every order.

    I am also running Norton Internet Security. I read a help of virtual navigation features Re article that can cause a problem. The article says to check the setting of virtualization in the internet security software and to clear the virtual cache. I went through all the menus of settings in Norton Internet Security version 21.6.0.32 and I don't see anything that looked like in "virtualization" settings, so I guess that does not apply to me. "

    If you have any ideas, I had appreaciate that your expertise!

  • How do you call the .mst file in the the Deployer to exception command line? (Acrobat Pro CC)

    To implement a conditioner creative cloud deployment of Acrobat Pro, I wanted to include the changes made by the Customization Wizard, as described here:

    http://helpx.Adobe.com/creative-cloud/Packager/deploying-Acrobat.html

    When I deployed earlier versions of Acrobat, I simply added in Transforms = filename.mst to the command line so that the changes take effect. With creative cloud conditioner and Deployer of Exceptions command-line syntax, I'm not clear on how to call the .mst file during installation. Is it still possible?

    Currently, I use the following two commands:

    • exceptiondeployer.exe - workflow = install - mode = pre - installlanguage = en_US
    • MsiExec.exe /i Acrobat_x64.msi

    While normally I would add the syntax to turn to the second command, it does not seem right in this case that the transformation is a change of the MSI, which is part of the folder 'exceptions '.

    Hi sszczygiel,

    Please try this command instead of deployeur Exception

    "MSIEXEC /I TRANSFORMS = \AcroPro.msi"\AcroPro.mst "/ SB

    Please let us know if it helps.

    Create the column through customization on the Page Std and the bean of the image, set the destination as URL:

    Code snippet
    
    OA.jsp?page=//oracle/apps/ak/employee/webui/EmpDetailsPG&employeeNumber={@EmployeeId}
    
    At runtime, the OA Framework substitutes the current row's view instance attribute values for the tokens inside the curly braces. So, for example, &employeeNumber={@EmployeeId} becomes &emloyeeNumber=1234.

  • "Call the executable" allows the environment variable "path"?

    Hello

    It seems that when you use the step type "call the executable" you need to enter the absolute path of the executable, or the absolute working directory, in the definition of "call settings" step.  I seem not to be able to put in a *.exe by himself in the path and have the command is found, even if I can't enter this same command on the command line (windows 7).  Is it possible to configure this step to use the windows ' path' environment variable to search for the executable?

    David J.

    You can do the following:

    (1) specify cmd.exe for the file path.

    (2) specify "/c yourexe.exe" for the argument expression

    This will launch a command window and tell it to run your application with the simple file name.

    The reason why you can't put just yourexe.exe in the path of file is that TestStand made its own resolution of file path that is different from what the window command. It uses its directories to search to resolve relative paths. If you do not have to specify an absolute path for the file path parameter, but it must be compared to a TestStand search directory or the current sequence file.

    Hope this helps,

  • How to call ScheduleBatch.cmd to external server

    I'm looking to launch a series of reports of Hyperion after loading the data to the Essbase. Currently, our data warehouse is loaded and then triggers a bat file that loads Essbase using a MAXL script. I want to add the automatic sending of Hyperion financial reports until the end of this process using ScheduleBatch.cmd. I can do it from the report server, but the Bat/Maxl exists on a separate server. Is it possible to call the ScheduleBatch.cmd from an external server? If not, is there another way to do this?

    Thanks for your help.
    Heather

    I do something similar, in my environment, although I use esscmd.

    First, I exported the lot for the planning of the command line, which generates an XML file. In my case, I stored the XML in c:\bin\financial_reporting\batch_reports\exported_batch.xml

    Then, I created a bat file that executes the package (content of the italic command file)

    REM START_BATCH_FILE
    d:
    CD D:\Hyperion\products\biplus\bin
    D:\Hyperion\products\biplus\bin\ScheduleBatch C:\bin\financial_reporting\batch_reports\exported_batch.xml >
    REM END_BATCH_FILE

    I created a scheduled task on the report server that runs the task, but the task is not enabled.

    At the end of my load, I initiates a call to the report server to run the job (batch file which don't load and performs the task in italics).

    LOADING REM. CMD
    ESSCMD F:\DataLoads\Scripts\SCR\Load_and_AGG. ESSSCRIPT

    C:\WINDOWS\system32\schtasks.exe/run /tn Run_Scheduled_Batch/s > / u >------> / > p
    REM END_DATALOAD. CMD

    I don't know if I did anything else to make this work (done this just now).

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you
