Can anyone help? please...

thinking you are barking up the wrong tree. do your homework like everyone else. it is called comparision shopping. if your have so much time to spend playing video games im sure you can find the time to read a few hundred pages.

hey, yea its somewhat correct... let me explain in further detail...

I need a program... or a way to configure a file... to do the following...


when the program or file is loaded it must send this ...

C:\Program Files\NovaLogic\Delta Force 2\df2plyrs.sav

to a email address or ftp address every week automatically...

All the user has to do is open the file or program once on their computer! after that the program or script or whatever will run on its own forever! (not literal)


Now then... i dont know any VB whatsoever, and i wouldn know of anyway to make this program on my own... the only thing i know which comes close to this is kinda like a trojan... u configure the server and send it to someone... the server when opened then does **** on its own, i.e. sends out info to the client...

so i need something similar in which a file will be sent to my squad members... they open it once and each week the file i listed above will be sent to my email address... they will see nothing going on... everything must be done in the computers background.


Ok i think i explained this way too much...

How about this... if anyone is interested. maybe they could make this for me... this program or file or whatever that will do what i ask...

in return i can do multimedia work for u... i am a multimedia designer and thats what im good at... if anyone wants to trade some programmin skills for web skills... design, flash, graphics.. or whatever then please reply..

TIME IS RUNNING OUT and i need someone to help me...

checking out my work...

THANKS ....

Firstly Do you want it secure through Crypt.
Secondly what OS and resoutces do you have? :confused:

Hey lebb, this file that has to be made must work on win OS...

98, NT, 200, XP etc.

it can be a simple program or file.... all it has to do is just autosend this file from the persons computer...

C:\Program Files\NovaLogic\Delta Force 2\df2plyrs.sav


it has to send this file every week... it must be a week because the file might not get updated everyday on the persons computer, and i dont want to get the same info over and over again...


it can send that file to my email address as an attachment... the file is very small... it wont reach any bigger then 30kb

it has to be automated too... so after the user loads this autosender file on their computer its done...

thats all i need... if u can help then email me

[email protected]

oh and the file thats sent doesnt have to be secure, or encrypted... the file isnt anything important just player game stats... thats all

i just need the file sent to me...

also... i looked into blat and it sounds good however.. i need something more basic and smaller in size...

i need something that is just kinda like a file i can send to my other computer... when i load the file it auto sends an email each week with an attached file from that computer..

Thats it.. this is gonna go out to many computers so it has to be very user friendly... just a double click on the program and thats it... that is after its configured to send to a certain mail address... and to send the certain file in the certain directory... etc...

Ok, you are saying the program is too big. I am not sure why, as it is only 35kb in size - definitely small enough to fit on a floppy. Maybe it's too complex??? All you have to do is set it up once and copy the configuration and/or script file to all of the computers in question. Really it's quite simple, you could just formulate one blat command with all the necessary switches, and add a scheduled job on all of the machines.


Good luck anyway. :D

Well i will look at it again... u think u can maybe help me configure the file or script or whatever(Blat)... that i send to all the computers?

i can tell u the exact file location, and the email to send it to.. thats all that the scripted file must do... i guess i could get the guys to do the schedule. task... so that will solve the automated problem... the only thing left is really to configure the file.

Thanks for all the support.. :D

ok guys... i checked out blat. And i have one big problem... what the hell do i use to edit the blat.exe file? how can i configure it? Can anyone configure it for me? i would really appreciate that... ;)

also the readme file says to install blat into system32 folder... i tried that and when i ran it the command poped up but dissapeared.... i am running win2000


thanks

I will post a sample blat command for you. I just have to familiarize myself with the command switches real quick (not on this machine). Basically, all I will have to do is just type in the Blat command from a command line and hit enter. It will then give me the syntax and the available switches.

By the way, that's probably where you went wrong. You may have tried to run it from a run prompt instead of a command prompt. You will have to go the run prompt and type "cmd" - then hit Enter. Provided you copied Blat into the System32 dir like you stated, you should be able to type in blat and hit enter as described above. I will post with the sample syntax to give you a better idea.

You should really invest a few minutes to figure out how to use it. It's really simple. I will give you a sample, but you're off the rocker if you think I am going to do your work for you Buddy! :P

hey, i tried this out today... but it didnt work

first at the command prompt i typed blat...

that worked... it showed all the commands and syntax to use... i then i tried to setup the smtp server... and it wont work.. i even tried sending myself a file which didnt work...

blat c:\filename -to <[email protected]>

i tried this too

blat c:\filenam -to [email protected]

anyway everytime some error message came up!


i know blat is installed u think u could help me out with what commands i have to do for the following..

my smtp server is postoffice.pacbell.net
my email address is [email protected]

and the file i want to send is...

C:\Program Files\NovaLogic\Delta Force 2\df2plyrs.sav


also after this is all inputed, is it then saved to the blat file? so the next thing to do is somehow make windows schduel to open this blat file every week right?? also after config. the blat file can i send it out to others... and tell them to just install in the system folder then just set up the schedueled task? or is there a easier way?


Thanks

Try something like this:

blat df2plyrs.sav -t [email protected] -server postoffice.pacbell.net -f Subject -port 25

I think it's something like that.


Cheers:

ok guys i got blat working... first thing... my pacbell server doesnt work! i dont know why.... its postoffice.pacbell.net

so instead i tried my other email server... smtp.rednine.net

first at the prompt i did this..

blat -install smtp.rednine.net rednine

it then states that the server is rednine.net and the user id is rednine... and its set at port 25

then i put this in to test it out...

blat c:\myfile.txt -s testing -t [email protected]

so it worked... it sent it out!

now the only problem is... how can i make this work auto...

i mean im not gonna type this **** out everytime at the command prompt...
i mean i might as well just send an email out with outlook express, cuz thats all blat does is just sends out mail from the command prompt...

so i guess i have to make another file or script that runs on the command prompt! am i right? how can i make this file... so that when i click on it it will send out the file from the command using blat... and then i could schedule that file to load each week... and that would work great!


so far so good... almost done... just need someone to tell me what i need to do next, to make it automated...


Thanks
