I can not get this program to open. The cmd window opens for a split second and closes...

It is a command line program.

If you understood that, you wouldn't have asked your next question. Google?

No dice, how?

The cmd shell doesn't close unless you close it.

No dice as in the CMD shell says it can't find the "ME7Logger" file or the ME7Info file even though they're RIGHT WHERE I POINTED THE PATH!

In your original post, you said
Quote

Copy/paste the contents of your cmd window, along with the path.

Please do not post a screen shot.

Also consider using the VisualME7Logger GUI if you can't figure out the command line tool.

as per your request:

Code:
C:\Users\Quintin R. Callahan>set path=%PATH%;C:\Users\Quintin R. Callahan\Documents\ME7Logger\Bin

C:\Users\Quintin R. Callahan>path
PATH=%PATH%;C:\Users\Quintin R. Callahan\Documents\ME7Logger\Bin

C:\Users\Quintin R. Callahan>start ME7Logger

C:\Users\Quintin R. Callahan>

Now once i do this, another cmd window blinks for a quick second, so i'm assuming the Logger is running in the background but i am not sure. I would expect some sort of cmd line output. If that is not the case then MY BAD.

***JUST FIGURED IT OUT*** FACEPALM SMH.  I just type ME7Logger or ME7 info without the "start"...

Sorry.

Now i still am a lil lost following the README as it doesn't give which commands to use setting up initially.

Also i downloaded the Visual GUI already well before i started this thread BUT i am actually trying to learn and expand my knowlege on what little i know of CMD Shell (which is basic networking checks). I want to learn this way because i actually have fun with this kinda stuff...when it works. Google is nice but the info you pull is sooooooo overwhelming!

I'll dig thru the ME7Logger thread again as i'm sure i missed a few things the first time thru as well as i was just trying to get the program running lol Wink

You don't need to use this "set path" stuff.  CD means change directory.  If you want to change the drive letter, just type the letter and ":".  So, say when you open CMD it flashes up "C:\......" and you want to be on "O", just type "O:" and it'll change.

Now, you can use "cd o:\my path\my logger\" and it'll change the working directory to: "o:\my path\my logger\"

Then create an ECU file with ME7Info using the same process, move your ECU file to ME7Logger and modify the text file.  I'll post mine when I get home so you can see how to mod variables.  I can always attach a working version, with my variables, and the file so you can see how it's done.

Using "start" before ME7Logger launches it separately from the command line window. Run just ME7Logger and you'll see it scroll the parameters you need to pass it to run

what he said.   I can rock a command prompt all day, but I still prefer VisualME7Logger because I can see the results in REAL TIME.  Boom.
