receive files in different folders, just like ICQ by daddo on 10-02-2006 at 04:49 PM

Ciao to all...

Good evening,

as u can imagine from the title, i would like to automatically receive/save files from users in my msn list in a different folder for each user.

I try to explain better, so u may not misunderstand....

Right now when someone send me a file in msn, it will be saved in RECEIVED FILES folder

I would like to automatically get those saved files in a different folder for each user ^^ (just like icq)


Is there any way, script, addon, patch or anything else to do it?

please, help, im becoming crazy!!!!

thanks

well... i installed that.. it needed to be configured.. i did and chosed that option (different folder for each user) but it doesnt work..... and in fact.. after the first installation i have no idea about how can i open the options again.... i use plus live 4.01.0.240

well seems there's no way to configure this script... uninstalling and reinstalling, the configuration wont appear anymore... even uninstalling plus and installing everything again.....

:'(


help

wait... let me understand.... maybe i got it.......

if i want it to save the files in a separate subfolder for each user... the other user must send me with FILE TRANSFER PLUS too....

in fact, right now i guess u will say... OBVIOUSLY!! =(

but then is not useful anymore for me coz 99% of my contacts dont even have Messenger Plus :'(

heeeeeeeeelp

please, there's any script writer who may want more glory?

help me and u will get =))

a friend told me:

"..as we know the folder path is saved somewhere, and i guess it can be modified
so the rest is changing the path when you get a file (based on the sender's e-mail), so it is possible..
if any one have time, maybe this is a good idea..."

he's right but i cant write scripts myself, unfortunately i never learnt and the only material i found to learn its in english (im italian) so i cant stand such a technical language in english.. =((

well, it seems not impossible, and i think its so useful (not just for me)

pleeeeeeeeeeease, help

(to save the received files in a separate subfolder for each user)

thank u! ^^

The Messenger::ReceiveFileDir property returns the path of the directory where files copied by Messenger when a file transfer request is accepted are stored.

Syntax
This is a read-only property.
[string] ReceiveFileDir;

Data Type
A string containing the full path to the directory. The path does not end with a backslash.



Can't be modified.

EDIT: Might be possible for a script to use the FileSystemObject to move the file after the transfer though, i'm not quite sure how it works.

Yea thats the easy part, the whole point is its hard to detect a file transfer.  You either have to packet sniff the protocol, use active accessability or richedit hooking to detect the transfer in the convo

so it seems we must wait for MSN 10... maybe 15 years after ICQ also our big Bill will understand that is a nice option to put in the software -_-'' thank u to everybody, if u will find any solution, please, post it

ciao ciao, thanks to everybody
