    Waitfor forever substitute with 'Else" type statement.

    This is the script I am trying to adjust. The variables sShelf, sSlot, and sStored are pulled off a text file. When I implement the if/else statement it keeps inputting the first variable from the text file. I need it to get to a point where it will pick up with teh next set of numbers...

    Waitfor forever substitute with 'Else" type statement.

    No matter where I place the Restart: the script does not pick up where the variables left off. It keeps restarting at the beginning. Am I missing something obvious?

    Waitfor forever substitute with 'Else" type statement.

    That's great. Next question: How do I use the ELSE statement with a GOTO statement that would point m,e back to the top of this script? (Where do I GOTO?) proc main string sLine string sShelf string sSlot string sStored if fopen 0 "d:modems1-4.txt" READ TEXT...

    Waitfor forever substitute with 'Else" type statement.

    In the below excerpt, is there a way to remove the "Forever" from the waitfor statement and replace it with an "else" statement that would send us back to the start of the script? THANKS! waitfor "ENTER SHELF : ^[[24;28H" Forever transmit sShelf transmit "^M"

    Open a .vbs file at end if script

    How do I get my script to open a .vbs file at the end of the script? (the .vbs file will be a popup box that signifies the script has completed)

    Direct fopen to an alternate drive

    Figured it out, thanks anyway. As is typical, just added the drive and colon (a:)

    Direct fopen to an alternate drive

    In the below script excerpt, is there a way to direct the script to look in the a: or d: drive for the text file "nychips1.txt"? if fopen 0 "nychips1.txt" READ TEXT ; TELNET INTO THE CONTROLLER connectmanual telnet "89.1.16.101

    Pulling script variables from multiple files.

    (assumes the data has already been read in from a file and is in the variable sLine): Knob, One more please. I cannot get the script (sLine) to reference my data.txt file and ge the variables ? ? ?

    Pulling script variables from multiple files.

    I am unsure how to relate that to a TRANSMIT statement

    Pulling script variables from multiple files.

    Knob, I am unfamiliar with the strextract command. Can you hook me up with an example?

    Pulling script variables from multiple files.

    In the first few steps in the script below, is there a way to have the shelf number pulled from one text file and the slot number pulled from another. (In other words, I need the numbers transmitted in both those steps to be grabbed from a text file. Can I use the same text file and separate...

    getting data from a text file via a loop

    That worked great, THANKS! The final piece of the puzzle is to loop the entire script below until the data.txt file has no more lines. (The overall goal is to telnet in to the controller card and enter different slots on the rack (as per the data.txt file) and executing the steps to put that...

    getting data from a text file via a loop

    OH NO! No matter what I do I cannot get two digits transmitted. If I do it manually with transmit lines I need to transit one digit, waitquiet 1, then transmit the second digit. I believe the delay exists on the Adtran controller I am telnetted into. Is there a way to modify the file below...

    getting data from a text file via a loop

    KNOB, YOU TOTALLY ROCK! But ... one last question (I hope) How do i set it up to grab one OR two digit numbers from the text file? (the parameters are 1-15) THANKS!!!!!
  15. jeditom

    getting data from a text file via a loop

    The line that reads: ; ENTER THE SLOT NUMBER waitfor "ENTER SLOT : ^[[24;27H" Forever transmit "1" waitquiet 1 transmit "^M" It is the data transmitted during this step that will be pulled from a text file. All...

    getting data from a text file via a loop

    In an eight step Telnet process which waits for queues then sends keystrokes, how do I get a loop in place for just one step, where the text inputed is drawn from a text file? Script: proc main ; TELNET INTO THE CONTROLLER connectmanual telnet "89.1.16.105" ; CHOOSE 1 SELECT UNIT...

    Pulling variables from a text file

    Knob, Where is the example? THANKS!

    Pulling variables from a text file

    How do I redirect my script in a loop to grab the two variables below being transmitted (in this case a 1) from an alternate file? ; CHOOSE 1 TO CHANGE THE SHELF waitfor "SHELF=" Forever waitfor "ENTER SELECTION : [24;32H" transmit "1&quot...

    Alternative to WAITFOR ?

    Is there a way to scan a screen of output for a particular string, then fire off the next line of the script? (As opposed to Waiting for the string to appear.) When Telnetting into my Adtran device I need to issue a WaitQuiet command, but experience a delay because the prompt I waiting for is...

    Transmit not working ??

    It seems so simple, but still not working. proc main connectmanual telnet "89.1.16.105" while $DIALING yield endwhile transmit "1^M" endproc I just want to see the 1 get transmitted at this point, but I still hear the error beep.
