 |

Helo.
I have problem with run application button.
I write small utility, which shows all my programs from ini files.
In programs directory are my programs, example calculator and player and ini files player.ini and calculator.ini.
In this ini files are:
name=player
fullpath=programs\player\player.exe
and in calculator.ini is:
name=calculator
fullpath=programs\calculator\calc.exe
But my program can't read fullpath after run application button.
My code:

Looks to me like it could be because you are using %A_LoopFileName% when in fact, you are not in a loop. You may want to find out what is in that variable because I'm assuming it's blank.
There is some other stuff with your code that looks off but I think that may get you something more than the ERROR value
EDIT:
Here are just some pointers I thought of doing, you can do what you want but it makes it a little more readable to use indentation and line breaks and grouping like commands. Just some thoughts in case you want to expand, I don't want to intrude.

The code shows only blank dropdownlist.
When I do this:
programsList .= name
all programs are in one line.

Oh, sorry, there should be quotes around the |
Like this: | Code: | | variable .= newVariable "|" |
Just so you know what this does is it adds the contents already on variable. It's the equivelant of doing this: | Code: | | variable = %variable%%newVariable%| |
or this | Code: | | variable := variable newVariable "|" |
You can also use periods in between to give you a better understanding of what is being joined together. The periods are optional though
| Code: | | variable .= newVariable . "|" |

I use this:
programsList .= name "|"
programs are show, but when I select one program and click run program, the message box shows error.
I want show fullpath from selected program.
Why program shows error?
