This darn thing runs for some users and not for others.
Please help!!!

I am doing something simular but with the RUN command.

How are you using the run command?

code:

---

If InGroup ("Address")
	Color y+/b
	At (6,1) "ADDRESS BOOK UPDATE."
	;Go f:
	At (6,1) "ADDRESS BOOK UPDATE.."
	Copy "\\servername\shared$\address\pogo.pab" "c:\address\"
	At (6,1) "ADDRESS BOOK UPDATE..."
	At (6,1) "ADDRESS BOOK UPDATE....."
EndIf

You don't need the "go f:" - statement, so I commented it out. The Copy-command can now copy your file from the server to the desktop.
Also, the errorcode is not needed to check. If Ingroup = true, than the code will be executed.

The entire script is extremely long so to isolate the problem I cut it down to just drawing the box and the copy part. I am running it off a directory in my C:

What does not work is the pogo.pab file will not copy to c:\address.

Does the address-dir exist on c:\?
Try to run it in debugging mode (kix32.exe /d script.kix), maybe you can see if an errormessage is coming up.

I can't read anymore..

where is a link..... AHHH here

kixref script.kix script.out

then notepad script.out ...

In there you'll see line numbers, and next to that - a "level" number that shows you how "deep" you are within your nested IF's and WHILE's. Look for breaks in the sequence ...

Can you put your script on the board. It isn't very long.
It is possible that some comment isn't started with a ; symbol.
See your script and search for both TO statements.

The kixstrip information tells me:
- script 100 lines long
- 2 blockstructure errors found
- no labels used
- no UDF's used
- using 4 IF/ENDIF blockstructures

Your code can be:

code:

---

IF (Ingroup("Address") <> 0)
  IF (Exist("c:\address") = 0) ; -directory doesn't exist-
    MD "c:\address"
  ENDIF
  IF (SetFileAttr("c:\address\pogo.pab",32) <> 0) ; -remove readonly attribute-
    ? "Warning KIX: @error (@serror)"
  ENDIF
  COPY "\\servername\shared$\address\pogo.pab" "c:\address\." /H
ENDIF

Here's what I run for laptop backups:

Go C:
RUN "XCOPY C:\MyDocu~1\*.* U:\Backup\*.* /i /e /r /y /k /h /q"

thanks for all of the help

He contacted me offline and it turned out it was an old vervion of kix, 3.21 i think .
