Hi, Thanks for the replies, yeh IDs are not good for .net controls, I'd rather not reference by button text incase there are duplicated control texts. Its ok though I found use with that ScriptWriter addon for AutoIt to record mouse clicks instead of specifying ID's.

Hi there, I am trying to emulate a button being clicked using AutoIt, on a C# WinForms (.net 2.0) GUI. The problem is the ID and Handle seem to change everytime the button is opened, I have tried this method: ControlClick("myForm", "", 1001) But the button ID changes everytime the GUI form is opened. So I tried this using the buttons Handle instead: #Include <GuiButton.au3> Send("{tab 5}") _GUICtrlButton_Click(0x001804D6) This tabs to the button, then forces a click, but the handle changes everytime the GUI is opened! Anyone know how I can specify that particular button to click, say using something like _GUICtrlButton_Click() ? Ideally I'd rather not use the button name, as there is a chance this might be duplicated. Thanks!
