So this morning I downloaded visual basic express, and have about an hour of experience with it.
I searched around the web and found out how to use environment variables in the script, but I don't know the proper syntax to extend that path to sub directories. If you know any VB please enlighten me.
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim wsh, fs, profile
wsh = createobject("WScript.Shell")
fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
profile = wsh.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%UserProfile%")
ChDir(profile)& "\pro\Creo_2_Home" <---doesn't like this syntax
Shell("C:\ptc\startup_scripts\creo_2_local-no-pdm-start.bat")
End Sub
End Class
If I just do this:
ChDir(profile)
It works and my working directory in Creo is my %USERPROFILE%
But obviously I want it to be %USERPROFILE%\pro\Creo_2_Home
