Hi Experts,
Step 1: I am using batch file/ Dos commands currently to call a third party appplication to publish a document. Step 2: As of now, i scheduled to run a second set of batch file leaving a long approximate time to allow third party to complete the above task where i get a dialog box, that it's done. The dialog box lingers on (Modal dialog box) from third party application comes when i run step 1 above. I have inherited these batch files. I would like to convert them into Python and i know a tiny little bit till now. My questions: 1. Can i call these DOS commands from python ? example please 2. Is there a way, i can know that third pary application has thrown up a dialog box, so that i can wait in Python till that point and execute clean up commands like killing the application, renaming the document etc. Psuedocode: execute dos commands wait ( until third party shows up dialog window) If ( Third party dialog) run the enter command as "OK" is highlighted and only option. execute further commands call Another batch file . Any help is appreciated. Regards -L _______________________________________________ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
