Hi, I'm trying to adapt a file that I found on the forums. The file keeps track of each keystroke used, and outputs the total amount of the keys pressed.

What I'm trying to do (quite unsuccessfully) is to put a timestamp and the user name in the line that is saved in the ini file, but I keep receiving a missing variable error.

Also, does anyone know how to set a timer to make this run every hour on the hour?


Code:
nSize:=   VarSetCapacity(sName, 256) + 1
DllCall("advapi32\GetUserNameA", "str", sName, "UintP", nSize)
nSize:=   VarSetCapacity(sFull, 1023) + 1
DllCall("secur32\GetUserNameExA", "Uint", 3, "str", sFull, "UintP", nSize)
MsgBox, 32,, Greetings %sFull%!,2
Return

SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir%  ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.
Loop
{
Input Key, L1 V, {ScrollLock}{CapsLock}{NumLock}{TAB}{Esc}{BS}{Enter}{PrintScreen}{Pause}{LControl}{RControl}{LAlt}{RAlt}{LShift}{RShift}{LWin}{RWin}{F1}{F2}{F3}{F4}{F5}{F6}{F7}{F8}{F9}{F10}{F11}{F12}{Left}{Right}{Up}{Down}{Home}{End}{PgUp}{PgDn}{Del}{Ins}
cnt++
}

;~*LButton::
;~*RButton::
;~*MButton::
   cnt++
return

=::
FileAppend %,%Sname%,%A_now%¬% "," cnt, data completion totals.ini
0:=cnt
return

I dont think you can 'fileappend' to an INI like that, you need iniWrite.

If you want 'fileappend', try:

fileappend, %sName% `, %A_now%, c:\path\file.txt


IniWrite, %sName%"-"%A_Now%, Filename/filepath_here, Section, Key
(don't know if you can even use a variable in the 'value' section of the iniWrite line honestly)

Instead of the DLL call to get thr user name, why not use the built- in variable :?:

Code:
msgbox The logon name of the user is %A_UserName%.


is this a typo ???
Code:
0:=cnt


You have too many parameters in the following statement.
I have no idea what it will do so I'm not going to run it.
What is the actual format that you want?
Code:
FileAppend %,%Sname%,%A_now%¬% "," cnt, data completion totals.ini

I read what you wrote, but don't quite understand it.
:?: Perhaps you want the "Fileappend" line to run on the hour ?

If that is what you want do, follow the steps below

before your Msgbox Greeting add these lines
Code:
start:=A_now
settimer, log_chk, 30000   ; 30*1000 => 30 seconds * 1000ms, check twice a minute

and replace your logging routine with this
Code:
=::
log_chk:
if (A_Hour=0 and A_Min=0)
{

  FileAppend %`,%Sname%`,%A_now%¬% "," cnt, data completion totals.ini
  cnt:=0
}
  return

Yes, you can use a variable. But it would be either:

Code:
IniWrite, %sName% - %A_Now%, Filename/filepath_here, Section, Key  ;--No quotes {"} needed here.

OR

myValue := sName " - " A_Now
IniWrite, %myValue%, Filename/filepath_here, Section, Key


The 2nd is what I would recommend, just makes it a little bit "cleaner"

Also, you can fileappend using any file extension. Doing so using the method "john tuomi" is won't make it a true INI file though, just a text file with an INI extension.

--> "john tuomi" -- If you look up in the Docs for A_Now you'll see how to make the Time/Date format whichever way you want.

What I am looking to do is have a timer running in the background that would trigger the sequence below every hour on the hour (based on the system clock) as long as the script is running.


[/code]=::
FileAppend %,%Sname%,%A_now%¬% "," cnt, data completion totals.ini
0:=cnt
return[code][/code]
