Hello batlon13.
I suppose you need the help of someone like me 
Trying
Sometimes a simple click can move a folder to another place.
If you know the name of some of the files you lost I think you can recover. Even possibly the files are in the trash folder.
You can try to find them with Windows Explorer, or Locate32 (a powerful search program)
Happen me in the past that visiting any folder I found the lost folder some time ago....

Forms recognition and data extraction from scanned documents

Scan them to .PDF.
Qiqqa can OCR them and make them searchable. I think you will then be able to copy the data from the OCRed documents.

You drive the scanner with your usual scanned drivers - i.e., not Qiqqa.
Screenshot Captor can acquire images from your scanner also.

-IainB (August 04, 2012, 03:18 AM)

I don't know if possible. In this case is forms recognition and data capture. But not all data. Selected fields to go into a database (txt, xml, csv, access, dbf,.....)

Can Create Qiqqa associated txt, xml, csv from a file selecting ICR ?

I double click but only obtain an error window.

What can I do now ?

Going to study the commands to see what I have to understand in the script.

OpenFolderThatHas filename

Opens every folder on the drive the script is run from, that contains a file filename. May use wildcards like *.cmd or *.txt. It only accepts one argument.  filename

It opens the folder and waits until the window is closed to do the next Loop.

[Select]

if 0 < 1
{
  MsgBox, 8256, Open Folder That Has, Usage: ofth filename
  ExitApp
}
filename = %1%
tmp := A_ScriptDir
StringLeft,drive,tmp,3
FilePat := drive filename
Loop, %FilePat%,,1
{
  tmp := _FileDir(A_LoopFileLongPath)
  ;MsgBox, 8256, Test, %A_LoopFileLongPath%`n%tmp%
  Run,%tmp%
  WinWaitActive,%tmp%,,5
  if (ErrorLevel)
    continue
  while WinExist(tmp)
  {
    Sleep,250
  }
}

_FileDir(path)
{
  SplitPath,path,,fdir
  return fdir
}

edit: I removed the "#notrayicon" so it can be killed via tray icon to break the loop. Also note that it waits until a window with the title that matches the folder name no longer exists. If you happen to have the same folder already open, it will hang. So close all explorer windows before running, or fix the script.

Do you already have a text listing of the files you want compressed?  As in, something like this:

c:\path\abc.txt
c:\another\path\def.txt
c:\more\stuff\ghi.txt

-skwire (August 01, 2012, 10:07 AM)

Skwire sounds me as something I must have. But... 

How can I obtain the txt file listing ?

General Software Discussion / Re: A software for compress file and able to find them first

« Last post by Contro on August 01, 2012, 07:15 AM »

Just now I did this (I have Locate32 and HAOzip installed, I think any archiver would probably do)

• Brought up Locate32 (I can bring it up using Win-F on my system)
• Did a search for .py (Python) files
• Selected a dozen files from the search results.
• Right clicked on the selected results
• Clicked HaoZip > Add to archive (Note: the Windows Explorer right click menu is replicated in Locate32)
• Clicked Browse and browsed to the Desktop
• Gave the filename Test.zip and hit OK.
• Opened the file Test.zip from the desktop and there were all the files I selected.

Is that something like what you need? (Re-reading the original post, I guess you are needing something more automated. It is a little more GUI, though. )

-daddydave (August 01, 2012, 06:27 AM)

Not very automated.
And the zip is only one. I would like any file individually packed to the corresponding zip or rar.

General Software Discussion / Re: A software for compress file and able to find them first

« Last post by Contro on August 01, 2012, 07:11 AM »

So, combining the line I provided with the work by daddydave:
Put rar.exe into somewhere accessible such as the windows folder, and then use this as a batch file:

[Select]

setlocal
set oldcd=%cd%
for /R %%D in (.) do (
 cd "%%D"
 for %%1 in (*.txt) do rar m -x*.rar -m5 "%%1.rar" "%%1"
)
cd /d %oldcd%
endlocal

Run it in the top folder where you want the compression to happen. Don't run it at your root folder or some system files which should remain txt will be compressed as well. That would be asking for trouble.

-eleman (August 01, 2012, 07:07 AM)

It seems that all txt file go compressed.

-Contro (July 31, 2012, 02:17 PM)

What tool do you currently use to search for files on your system, are you using the Windows default or a third party tool such as Locate32 or Everything. If Windows, what version of Windows?

Are the "certain conditions" fairly constant or do you want to full search power of your chosen tool?

-daddydave (August 01, 2012, 06:54 AM)

You read my little mind. I revived Locate32 last night.

Open the corresponding folder of the found files

I would like a soft for :

Open the corresponding folder of the found files.

suppose I would like to find the file "abc.txt" in one of my hard disks.

When the file is found the corresponding folder is opened. That's the idea.

I suppose if many files are encountered may be problem with the memory or the operative system. So better is possible open in series.

A software for compress file and able to find them first

I try to explain. Excuse my language.
I would to scan my hard disk (or disks) for a file with certain conditions.

By example : locate the file       "abc.txt"

When find the file compress to a rar file.

That all.

But compress seperate each file found in his own folder.


By example :

y:\path1\abc.txt to y:\path1\abc.rar

y:\path1\path2\abc.txt to y:\path1\path2\abc.rar

That all I need

Best Regards


More complete more powerful.

Find And Run Robot / Numerical keypad

« Last post by Contro on July 24, 2012, 05:38 AM »

Windows xp pro sp3

I activate FARR
When I begin to write numbers from the numerical keyboard goes directly to the number in the list to the left.

I don't want this because I have very used folders with numbers I would like locate. This is possible with the numerical alpabhetical zone, but not in the numerical keyboard zone.

What can I do to vary this configuration ?

Post New Requests Here / Re: Create a file list from multiple folders

« Last post by Contro on July 07, 2012, 07:51 AM »

Far less sophisticated, but a quick and easy hack for a recursive text dump of a directory and files:

http://renegademinds...abid/56/Default.aspx

Dump file and directory lists to text files

Need a complete list of files and directories from Windows? Don't feel like typing them manually? Here's the answer...

The following is a batch file that runs under command.exe or cmd.exe, depending upon whether you are using Windows 9x/Me or Windows NT/2000/XP/2003. Copy the file contents then save it in your SendTo directory as getDirListing.bat. In Windows NT/2000/XP/2003 the SendTo directory is in <DRIVE>:\Documents and Settings\<YOUR WINDOWS LOGIN>\SendTo.

Code: Text [Select]

1. @echo Directory and sub-directory file listing dump by RenegadeMinds.com.
2. @echo Visit http://Renegademinds.com for more Windows tips and tricks
3. @echo and free software applications.
4. @echo ==================================================================
5. @echo ==================================================================
6. @echo Save this file as getDirList.bat in your SendTo directory.
7. @echo SendTo is under Documents and Settings in each user's directory.
8. @echo Right-click on any directory in Windows Explorer and choose
9. @echo Send To - getDirList.bat
10. @echo ==================================================================
11. @echo ==================================================================
12. @echo Dumping directory listing to c:\dirListing.txt
13. @echo        (This may take some time for large directory trees.)
14. @REM the /A switch lists all hidden and system files as well.
15. @REM the /S switch lists all subdirectories and their contents.
16. @dir %1 /A /S > c:\dirListing.txt
17. @echo Opening c:\dirListing.txt in Notepad (Close notepad to delete file)
18. @notepad c:\dirListing.txt
19. @echo Deleting c:\dirListing.txt
20. @del c:\dirListing.txt
21. @pause

Right-click on any directory and choose SendTo > getDirListing.bat.

Cheers,

Renegade

It goes in the "Send to" menu in your context menu.

But like I said, far less sophisticated. The only real benefit is that it is fast, easy, and you don't need to bother opening any software for it.
