what's wrong with {windowsbutton}+L >_

Nice helpercode!!! One problem though. What is Bing_bot and how do i get the needed class for that?

I double checked that remark. And you absolutely right. I wasnt aware that my target systems had AutoItX3 already registered (i believed it was not). I did a regsvr32 /u and tried again.....after the tears had dried, i saw that the dll indeed must be registered. /me gets a broom and puts together a broken dream... ;-) Cheers

I work with non-registerred dll's with the help of a little tool called ILMerge. My Steps to succes >_< : * Register the dll on your development system with regsvr32 (eg. AutoItX3.dll) * Reference the dll from your project in a IDE of choice (i use sharpdevelop). * Use the methods and properties you need from the dll in your code. * After compiling your assembly there will be a interop.<dllclassname>.dll in your bin directory * now comes the trick: you can merge the assembly and the interop dll into a new single executable with ILMerge.exe From now on you exe will run from any system without having registered the dll on that system. Get ILMerge here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=22914587-b4ad-4eae-87cf-b14ae6a939b0&displaylang=en Cheers -edit- example use for merging AutoItX3.dll: "ilmerge" /target:winexe /out:New-Executable-Merged.exe Old-Exe-Name.exe Interop.AutoItX3Lib.dll(-> was created by referencing AutoItX3.dll)

Wow! This is a great idea. Nice way to create extendible applications

Uuuhm...maybe im a bit stupid. But what relation to autoit does this have? Creator

Kewl. XPsp2 here. I did a quick processmonitor on changing the association. Seems you are missing some current_user keys in you script. Ill try and isolate all needed keys so you can check what are missing.

For a good answer to your question its nescessary to know for which OS you want to accomplish this? Since Vista this became really a pain (though they created a com interface specially for it). Creator

After adding the Lan messenger in DEP exceptions its works like a charm now! Creator

Found a very little buggie. In server.au3 when sending the chatmessage, you forgot to add ":" in _TCP_Server_Broadcast(@UserName & GUICtrlRead($chatinput)) It should be _TCP_Server_Broadcast(@UserName & ": " & GUICtrlRead($chatinput)). Nice clean functional. Just the way i like it Nicely done! Creator

Yes, that would be great...cause i like this messenger quit a lot Creator

Running Vista here and it works fine! Nicely done.

Heya, Could you tell me the reason why im not allowed to change the filename? We have sms-inventory on here @ work and LAN Messenger.exe is NOT something i want to show up in the sms-reports!! Creator
