That makes sense. It's trivial to work around, just confusing when you first see it happening. Thanks for your great tips and examples web pages, I keep finding useful stuff when I go back and read again when I'm looking to implement new ideas. I still can't get over how powerfull a tool...

Thanks again for the tips. Regarding the wrong capture file being used, the most likely cause for this is that your Connection Directory entries likely have a capture file of some sort specified, so that when you make a connection, the script is using that capture file until you use the set...

Thanks, that was clearly something fundamental I was missing that I needed to know. That got the capture on/off working now but saw some odd stuff along the way. First I noticed that I was getting blank results and traced it back to finding that when capture on/off within the dial loop it...

Thanks!!! It took me a few tests to figure out where to put what but I got it working. Here's what I came up with - feel free to add back to your example resources if you'd like to. This dials each Telnet entry and runs a command sequence, exits and then loops through connecting to the rest of...

Knob, Can you offer any tips on how I could modify this to just append the date to a file name in a script that I use to run some specific commands? I don't really need a script that runs as a daily log or that saves every 5 minutes, but I run a lot of scripts periodically that save a specific...

I have a working script that telnets to multiple sites and runs commands while dumping the results to a file. I have about 12 sites it connects to and I know a cleaner way to do this and be scalable for new sites is to just have it loop the telnet entries in my Connection Directory. Currently...

I have an existing script someone helped me with about a year ago that parses a file and creates a summary of key info off a few lines. I want to do something similar to compile a report of certain fields from a bigger chunk of data where the data is not on sequential lines. I've successfully...

I'd like to be able to pop up the Find window from within a script. Is there a way to do this? I vaguely recall seeing what looked like a list of numeric references to Procomm system menu items but can't locate it. Also, I'd like to be able to find and parse some entire lines of date from a...

I don't use the Data type connection entries so I'm not clear on what the Setup allows there, but I do have my Telnet entries intiating a script after dialup. Are you saying it can't do that, or just suggesting I am using a superfluous command that doesn't matter anyway? It took a bit of...

There is not a way for Procomm to be automatically notified when the value of the Windows clipboard changes. Could there be a way look for updates clipboard data with a while/if statement? i.e. during the dialog check for button presses periodically check for a changed string using cliptostr...

<i>I didn't realize earlier that the values you were trying to execute earlier were strings containing the script name instead of the script name itself. In that case, you'll just want: execute Profile with no double quotes or .wax extension (since this is all taken care of in the dialog)...

Thanks. You helped quite a bit. I figured out a few other mistakes causing the list items not to display and have debugged it to the point that the ResetModem function seems to be working fine. But when I try to pass a string to execute a script name it doesn't seem to take it. I even tried...

Try not to laugh too hard, please, I know the stuff posted below doesn't compile and is riddled with errors. I don't have much in the way of progamming experience and I've spent the last day trying to read various references, sample scripts, posts and help files I could find and am not getting...

Thanks! That looks like exactly what I was looking for. I appreciate the tips on string combining also.

Looks like I'm seeing a string I pull from the Windows clipboard causing occasional early execution of the line I am trying to construct and transmit. I think it's coming from a <CR> at end of the highlighted string and it's difficult in windows sometimes to copy a string at the end of a line -...

This looks like what I need. Thanks!

Thanks, that looks like it should help a lot. I appreciate your help.

I'd love to see a script example of how you accomplished the solution to the original question - could you post it?

thanks - this is useful info. I always thought the thing I'd seen with the paste clearing the windows buffer to be an odd and atypical thing that wasn't necessary, which is why I assumed that was done in a custom DLL or program when it grabbed that string to look up a dial string from a...

Thanks. I'd probably need to specify what flags the end of the list - that should be the seesion returning to a prompt of # End result I'd like is to write a file or have a formatted display of the data in pairs, taking many variations of the strings in the format I mentioned previously into...
