I have a text file formatted like this:
computername,garbage,garbage,etc
computername2,garbage,garbage,etc
I need to be able to take the computername before the comma and put it into a variable so i can pass another command...I'm just not sure how to do that...I know how to open the file and readline, but I can't figure out how to only take out the string before the comma and then go to the next line....left() doesn't work since computer name lengths vary.

something like this...
Code:
Shell '%comspec% /c ping ' + $name + ' -n 1 | find "TTL" > nul'
If not @ERROR
;run you commands
;
EndIf

So here's what I have:
Code:
if open(1,"c:\computers2.txt",2) = 0
while @ERROR = 0
$line = readline(1)
$computer = Split($line,",")[0]
SHELL "C:\ALIVE /repeat=2 " + $computer
If not @ERROR
shell "C:\pstools\psloggedon \\" + $computer
EndIf
LOOP
CLOSE (1)
Endif
Problem is when alive returns an errorcode when a computer isn't alive, the entire loop ends. Anyway around that?

lol ok last question I promise...now I need to redirect the output of the psloggedon to a file...I just can't figure out how the redirectoutput() command works:
Code:
if open(1,"c:\computers2.txt",2) = 0
$line = readline(1)
while @ERROR = 0
$computer = Split($line,",")[0]
SHELL "C:\ALIVE /repeat=2 " + $computer
If not @ERROR
open(2,"C:\users.txt",5)
writeline(2, $computer + @CRLF)
close(2)
redirectoutput("c:\users.txt",0)
shell "C:\pstools\psloggedon \\" + $computer
EndIf
$line = readline(1)
LOOP
CLOSE (1)
Endif

lol ok I think I'm almost there...now I'm getting this error with the pipe command...
Code:
$output = pipe("C:\pstools\psloggedon \\" + $computer)
writeline(2, $output + @CRLF)
ERROR : Error in expression: this type of array not supported in expressions.!
Script: c:\pctest.kix
Line : 11
line 11 is the writeline...so since the writeline doesn't work...how do I place the contents of that array into a file??
Thanks!
