Whats the use of an automation script if you can't automate games with it? Let me rephrase my question: I'm interested in the problem that arouses when you try to send commands to some games. I'm not going to automate any games, I'm just wondering about the concept. Can anyone explain this to me please?

Thanks! This is just what I.... hey wait a second! I'm not trying to automate a game for malicious reasons or even for advertising in the game. I honestly want to experiment with AutoIt. So please don't link me that page again.

Haha. I'm sure there are hundreds of other threads about this but I failed to find one addressing my problem. I just started using AutoIt and I tried to make a program that sends commands to WoW. My code: Sleep(5000) ControlSend("World of Warcraft", "{TAB}") Very simple. I press F5, switch to WoW and wait 5 seconds....... nothing happens.Pressing tab should target the nearest enemy. I looked up the problem and read somewhere that programs like WoW had to be sent key presses in some special way; you couldn't just use Send() or ControlSend(). However the article failed to mention a remedy. So my question is: "What is the special procedure/function I need to use to be able to send key presses to WoW?". Thank you very much!
