I'm not sure whether this is really a bug, but, try this:
Code:
afile=pathtoafile.txt
;if afile contains txt ; works
if afile contains .txt ; works <--
;if (afile contains txt) ; works
;if (afile contains .txt) ; throws an error
;if (afile contains txt) and (if InStr(FileExist(afile),D) = 1) ; works
;if (afile contains .txt) and (if InStr(FileExist(afile),D) = 1) ; throws an error
msgbox, 0, ok, the file seems to be a text file
else
msgbox, 0, error, the file is not a text file
Why is the dot excepted only without the braces? And is it possible to do something like this?
Code:
if (afile contains .txt,:\) and (if InStr(FileExist(afile),D) = 1) ; a 'valid' path to a text file
I tried escaping, but that didn't make no difference. What characters can be used?
