@Danp2I have looked at the help file entry for "_Excel_Open".
This is the code to launch a hidden copy of Excel:
#include <Excel.au3>
Global $bVisible = True
Global $sWorkbook = "C:\test\test.xlsx"
$oWorkbook = _Excel_BookOpen(_Excel_Open($bVisible = False), $sWorkbook)
After that, what to do to minimize the file?
When I want to test Example 1 of Function _IECreate (AutoIt Help File), I see that function _IECreate doesn't work in Windows 10.
Syntax Check (Ctrl+F5) gives no errors.
Example 1:
; Create a browser window and navigate to a website
#include <IE.au3>
Local $oIE = _IECreate("www.autoitscript.com")
The error I receive with F5 (Tools, Go) in SciTE:
