quacky

Yep, hasn't worked for me either. AdlibEnable() also doesn't work... BUT I found a sloppy work around! FIRST I must run this "login hack" script completely separately. All it does is look for the spawned login window: While 1 If WinExists("ceView Logon") Then $userName = "demo" $password = "demo" $login = WinGetHandle("ceView Logon") ;send username, password, and submit Sleep(500) ControlSend($login, "", "[CLASS:ATL:Eon00031; INSTANCE:1]", $userName) ControlSend($login, "", "[CLASS:ATL:Eon00031; INSTANCE:2]", $password) Sleep(500) ControlClick($login, "", "[CLASS:ATL:Eon00004; INSTANCE:1]", "left", 1) Exit EndIf WEnd SECOND I run the embed script, which now works as expected: #include <IE.au3> #include <StaticConstants.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> ;hotkey HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate") $url = "http://ceviewv3.cygnus.com/ceview/application.htm" $userName = "demo" $password = "demo" GUICreate("test", 1024, 768, -1, -1, $WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW + $WS_VISIBLE + $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS + $WS_CLIPCHILDREN) $oIE = _IECreateEmbedded() $GUIActiveX = GUICtrlCreateObj($oIE, 10, 10, 1004, 748) ;Show GUI GUISetState() ;open site, here's where it gets stuck on the login popup _IENavigate($oIE, $url, 0) While 1 ;the "login hack" script will take care of the login popup WEnd Func Terminate() Exit 0 EndFunc ;==>Terminate Although this is working I sill don't feel I'm approaching it correctly. I did try the other method options posted... there must be another way to do this? Thanks everyone for your help.

I need to automate login to a website. I can do it just fine by using _IECreate(), and when the login prompt appears, the script recognizes the new window and send the appropriate login/password (included demo values won't login). However, when opening the site through _IECreateEmbedded() in a GUI (preferred way!), I get stuck on _IENavigate. It looks like the script is waiting for the page to load, but the Javascript prompt is hanging it up. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. #include <IE.au3> #include <StaticConstants.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> ;hotkey HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate") $url = "http://ceviewv3.cygnus.com/ceview/application.htm" $userName = "demo" $password = "demo" $oIE = _IECreateEmbedded() GUICreate("test", 1024, 768, -1, -1, $WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW + $WS_VISIBLE + $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS + $WS_CLIPCHILDREN) $GUIActiveX = GUICtrlCreateObj($oIE, 10, 10, 1004, 748) ;Show GUI GUISetState() _IENavigate($oIE, $url, 0) ;wait for login popup WinWait("ceView Logon") ;get login window handle $login = WinGetHandle("ceView Logon") ;send username, password, and submit ControlSend($login, "", "[CLASS:ATL:Eon00031; INSTANCE:1]", $userName) ControlSend($login, "", "[CLASS:ATL:Eon00031; INSTANCE:2]", $password) Sleep(500) ControlClick($login, "", "[CLASS:ATL:Eon00004; INSTANCE:1]", "left", 1) Func Terminate() Exit 0 EndFunc ;==>Terminate

(wrong forum... reposted here)

Was a "Reverse PixelSearch()" really added? I can't find it in the Beta documentation (other than being listed in the changelog, the same as in this post).

I've been looking for it too. If I find it I'll post.

Thanks!!! Looks like adlib will do what I need.

I have a script that works wonderfully, but every so often an area of the screen will need to be clicked based on a nearby area changing color. Is there a way to do this as sort of a "hot key"? The function would only be triggered if the color changed in a specific area. I suppose I could run the function every x minutes to check, but that seems pretty inefficient. I know it must be possible... thanks in advance for your insight.

My current set-up makes Excel active, then send "^j", which activates a VB macro within Excel. What I'm trying to do is to just sent the "^j" to a minimized instance of Excel, but apparently I need the Control ID for the main window of Excel, and there isn't one that the AutoIt Window Info tool can see. From what I can see it doesn't matter what's being sent to Excel - I can't even send just the letter "a", but I can do it with Notepad. Is it because it's Excel 2007? Thanks for reading this.

I'm sorry, thanks as in "it didn't work but thanks anyway"... and neither did either of those... muttley

Tried that too, thanks... muttley

Thanks, but I don't think the problem is finding the title (and I did test it; didn't work). I'm able to use ControlSend just fine with programs like Notepad, but with Microsoft Excel 2007, I can't get a control ID for the main window. This is what Info tells me: >>>> Window <<<< Title: Microsoft Excel Class: XLMAIN Position: -8, -8 Size: 1296, 1010 Style: 0x15CF0000 ExStyle: 0x00000110 Handle: 0x00070360 >>>> Control <<<< Class: XLDESK Instance: 1 ClassnameNN: XLDESK1 Advanced (Class): [CLASS:XLDESK; INSTANCE:1] ID: <------ Don't I need this to use ControlSend?

Yeah, I realized that about 30 seconds ago then saw your response. Still doesn't work though... have any more insight into this? Thanks. ControlSend("Excel", "", "", "^j")

I'm trying to use ControlSend to send "^j" to a minimized instance of Excel. However, there is no control ID associated with Excel when there are no spreadsheets open. I'm sending ctrl-J to start a VB macro within Excel, which loads and parses the newest files in the directory. I thought this would work: ControlSend("XLDESK", "", "", "{CTRLDOWN}j{CTRLUP}") ... and it doesn't give me any error messages, but it doesn't seem to work either. Thanks in advance!

I figured it out... my original thought using PixelCheckSum worked... I just rechecked my coordinates, and I was off by 10 pixels. Thanks to those of you who offered suggestions!

Mind sharing your solution? I need the same function. Thanks!!!
