#26796 - 2002-08-09 02:05 PM CALL Question
Kdyer Kdyer KiX Supporter Registered: 2001-01-03 Posts: 6241 Loc: Tigard, OR	Looking in the documentation for CALL we see: CALL "script name" Or.. CALL "scriptname.kix" But, from what I have seen in the %LOGONSERVER%\NETLOGON share, this does not work properly. What you have to do to make this work is: CALL @ldrive+"scriptname.kix" If you initiate the "main" .KIX file from the NETLOGON share wouldn't the sub files be called like how it is specified in the documentation?

Sealeopard Sealeopard KiX Master Registered: 2001-04-25 Posts: 11165 Loc: Boston, MA, USA	I suspect the same, I wouldn't be surprised if it looks in the following areas: 1) the current directory (whatever @CURDIR) is 2) the %PATH% directories 3) maybe even in %WINDIR% and/or %WINDIR%/SYSTEM32 Basically all directories that the KiXtart executable would look in too, in the same order _________________________ There are two types of vessels, submarines and targets.

Kdyer Kdyer KiX Supporter Registered: 2001-01-03 Posts: 6241 Loc: Tigard, OR	Thanks for the responses! Looking at these macros, any one of these would work.. @LDRIVE - Drive that is redirected to \\logonserver\NETLOGON @CURDIR - Current directory @SCRIPTDIR - Directory of current script The question is why doesn't Kixtart do the call (by default) from the same directory? I did not realize that this was an issue until I started testing the script more thoroughly under Windows NT 4. My bad.

Kdyer Kdyer KiX Supporter Registered: 2001-01-03 Posts: 6241 Loc: Tigard, OR	In test script, we are using MCA's KIX410UPDATE.EXE (with some modifications) and is launched from %windir%.. The KIX32.EXE is in C:\WINNT.. Cheers, Kent _________________________ Utilize these resources: UDFs (Full List) KiXtart FAQ & How to's
