copied!<p>This is because <code>global.au3</code> doesn't get updated. It's providing initial values to your variables. Using <code>#include "global.au3"</code> is the same as writing:</p> <pre><code>;main.au3 #include-once Global $g1 = "" Global $g2 = "" $g1 = "stuff" $g2 = "stuff" Run("copy.exe") </code></pre> <p>and</p> <pre><code>;copy.au3 #include-once Global $g1 = "" Global $g2 = "" MsgBox(0, $g1, $g2) </code></pre> <p>As you can see, <code>copy.au3</code> (<code>copy.exe</code>) has <code>$g1</code> and <code>$g2</code> set to <code>""</code>.</p> <p>To pass your <code>$g1</code> and <code>$g2</code> variables to <code>copy.exe</code>, you can either use <code>IniRead()/IniWrite()</code> to read/write an .ini file or pass the variables as command line parameters.</p> <p>Here's an example of the command line parameters option: </p> <p>(no global.au3 needed; compile main.au3 and copy.au3; double click main.exe to run)</p> <p><strong>main.au3</strong></p> <pre><code>;main.au3 $g1 = "stuff" $g2 = "stuff" ShellExecute('copy.exe', $g1 & ' ' & $g2) </code></pre> <p><strong>copy.au3</strong></p> <pre><code>;copy.au3 $g1 = $CmdLine[1] $g2 = $CmdLine[2] MsgBox(0, $g1, $g2) </code></pre> <p>I used <code>ShellExecute()</code> instead of <code>Run()</code> because <code>Run()</code> has been a pain in the a$$ in the past (for me). I don't usually have any issues with <code>ShellExecute()</code> and <code>ShellExecuteWait()</code>.</p> <p>Also, for more info on command line parameters you can search on "Command Line Parameters" in the AutoIt help.</p>
