I am trying to create a task that will report the free space on our different servers, and I am having problems with the "output", is there a way to Print the value of a varible inside of a text statement, either to the screen, printer, or email.

example:

dim Mbytes, number

Output:
There is {MYBYTES} MB of Free space remaining on the server.

We'll look at your request in a nearest time and will get back to you.

use MessageBox for screen output
use MailSend for email output
use FileSave to save to a text file and then use FilePrint to print that file

What is the syntax for? Can you give me an example? I have tried this several times and I get a variety of error messages. I can output the text that I specify or I can output the value of the varaible. But I can not output them in a combined statement. there must be a format issue involved. thank you.

I think that I have now using the "concat" function.

I have a new issue. I am using the following script to get the free space.
// These are the Variables

Dim c_bytes, Number
Dim mbytes, Number
Dim d_bytes, Number
Dim total, Number
Dim c_mbytes, Number
Dim d_mbytes, Number

// This gets the free space from the drives that are mapped to the PC
// and stores the data in c_bytes and d_bytes.

DiskGetFreeSpace( "R:", c_bytes )
MessageBox( c_bytes )

DiskGetFreeSpace( "W:", d_bytes )
MessageBox( d_bytes )

But the line that refers to d_bytes, is returning the wrong data. It should return 14.6GB but it returns 3.1GB. Can you help me with this.
