  1. Hello, I have a problem that might be resolved via the Powershell cmdlets, but in a roundabout way I am hoping this makes a clear reasoning for a feature request. --------- I am currently trying to write a Powershell script to automate the extraction of information from a program window. It is a static table, i can select a line but I have no way to cursor move, or space, or tab through the cells and copy/paste the data out. Before I go any further, I must make it clear that any solution must work under the following environmental restrictions: * You have User privileges only * You cannot install or run an EXE, or add COM objects. * Only Powershell v2.0 is available. I extracted the AutoItX powershell cmdlets module and Dll files from the zip file, but Powershell v3.0 restrictions forbid Import-Module. I was able to get around this by running 'Powershell -version 2' and downloading this version of the cmdlets: https://github.com/rhapsodyman/AutoIt/blob/master/autoit-v3/install/AutoItX/ The demo commands shown on this webpage work perfectly fine with Notepad https://www.autoitconsulting.com/site/scripting/autoit-cmdlets-for-windows-powershell/ Since it is not possible to run or execute AU3INFO.EXE, I have no way of finding the control name or handle of the table I need from within the window. It seems the only way available would be if there was a powershell cmdlet that would list all of the controls in a window, and present them in a formatted table. From there I could try each control individually until I hit gold. Who would I need to contact regarding this feature, and how realistic is it that this feature would be added or implemented?
