Status: offline 		Hi,
    I am a newbie to VB Scripting. I am trying to call "chkdsk c: /f /r" within VB Script. It hangs since, the chkdsk asks another confirmation of "Y/N" for this command. How can i pass this Y or N with in the script??

Could any one help?

Thanks..

%comspec% /c echo Y | chkdsk c: /f /r

Status: offline 		Now if the chkdsk command 2 input, once it asks whether to dismount the volume and then it asks if to schedule on restart! In this case, how can i pass 2 parameters to the chkdsk command? Is it possible using Pipe operator??

I tried cmd /c echo Y | echo N | chkdsk d: /r, but this doesnt work!

Could anyone help?

What about:

Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

%comspec% /c echo Y | chkdsk c: /f /r

WScript.Sleep 2000
WshShell.SendKeys "N"
WScript.Sleep 2000
WshShell.SendKeys "{ENTER}"

That might work but there again its a very crude way of doing it but if it works for the time being I am sure it would be useful unless someone else has a diffrent approach which is much better go with that :)

Hope this helps

James

I've added comments for a "walkthru"
