Hi...
i have project in VB6 and i want to join with it python language..

So in Command prompt (DOS) i write this command:

C:\Documents and Settings>cd C:\python24

C:\Python24>buckwalter2unicode.py <infile.txt> outfile.txt

C:\Python24>

i think the run is done but i have message in outfile (notepade file) is:

(Must specify a file to use store the output! Aborting...)

and the output i want it can not be print in outfile..

please if any body Know the python language help me because i'm new in it...
thanks a lot
:confused:

Why don't you visit some sort of Python forum??

Why don't you visit some sort of Python forum??

Why are you so mean to him?? lol. Just kidding. Yeah, or visit the other programing language section in the foums ;)

Moved from Classic VB.

I know some Python. Did you write the script in question? If so, under which circumstances would you output that message? (Post code!) If not, read its documentation and possibly contact the author.

C:\Python24>buckwalter2unicode.py <infile.txt> outfile.txt

C:\Python24>

i think the run is done but i have message in outfile (notepade file) is:

(Must specify a file to use store the output! Aborting...)

and the output i want it can not be print in outfile..
C:\Python24>buckwalter2unicode.py outfile.txt <infile.txt The program obviously wants the output file as a parameter.

If you get the same complaint about the input file, make itC:\Python24>buckwalter2unicode.py infile.txt outfile.txtWhich way it should be depends on how the .py file is written - is it looking for keyboard input or a filename on the parameter list for input?

Hi... thanks for help
I used this code to get the data from (outfile.txt) file and also i want to run this data (file) in command prompt (DOS) by python code.
Code:
Private Sub GetData()
Dim tW As String
Dim tmp() As String
Dim Words() As String
Dim gloss() As String
Open "C:\buckwalter_morphan_1\data\outfile.txt" For Input As #1
tmp = Split(Input(LOF(1), 1), vbCrLf)
Close #1
Dim sLine As String
For x = 0 To UBound(tmp)

If UCase(Left(tmp(x), 10)) = " SOLUTION" Then
Words = Split(tmp(x), "(")
If UCase(Left(tmp(x + 1), 12)) = " (GLOSS)" Then
sLine = sLine & Left(Words(1), InStr(Words(1), ")") - 1)
gloss = Split(tmp(x + 1), "+")
sLine = sLine & " (" & Trim(gloss(1)) & ");"
Else
sLine = sLine & Left(Words(1), InStr(Words(1), ")") - 1) & ";"
End If
ElseIf UCase(Left(tmp(x), 12)) = " Comment" Then
Words = Split(tmp(x), ":")
sLine = sLine & Words(1)
ElseIf UCase(Left(tmp(x), 5)) = "INPUT" Then
If sLine <> "" Then
If Right(sLine, 1) = ";" Then
sLine = Left(sLine, Len(sLine) - 1)
End If
sLine = sLine & vbCrLf
End If
Words = Split(tmp(x), ":")
sLine = sLine & Trim(Words(1)) & ":"
ElseIf UCase(Left(tmp(x), 7)) = "LOOK-UP" Then
'nothing
End If
Next
Debug.Print sLine
WORDLIST = Split(sLine, vbCrLf)
End Sub

now i have this code but i don Know if it corect or not to open the DOS and run the outfile.txt by python code.. and if is ok where can i put it?
''open command prompt to run Python script
'Open Apath & "dos.bat" For Output As #1
'Print #1, "cd C:\python24"
'Print #1, "buckwalter2unicode.py -o outfile.txt"
'Close #1

'' ShellAndWait Apath & "dos.bat"
Shell Apath & "dos.bat"

please help...
Thanks a lot ..

I added vbcode tags to your code to make it eaier to read.

That's not at all helpful. The code you use to read the output is irrelevant if the Python script does not produce output.

This seems to have become a VB question in any case.
