If command winwaitactive

[greenbeauty]

Hello

I'm going to install an application on some serveral clients..

I made an autoit script and everything is working on 50% of the computers in my company.

On the other computers the script isn't working because there is an additional screen, so I used the IF command.

this is my script for all the computers:

RunAs ( "administrator", "xx", "xx, "path\connector.exe" )

If WinWaitActive("Browse for Folder", "Geef een locatie op", 5) Then Send("{enter}")  

    
WinWaitActive("CaseWare Connector 2009 - InstallShield Wizard", "Welkom bij de InstallShield Wizard")
Send("!v")

When I use "0" instead of "5", then the script is not working for the pc where the additional screen is present.

When I run this script at another computer where the screen is not present, then the script work fine!

I can't resolve this problem

hopefully you have an answer for me...

Thanks.

There is a typo in the RunAs line, there is a missing " in the password field. I don't know if this will resolve the issue, another suggestion I will make is leave the WinWaitActive timeout value of 5 if it works correctly in that case.

Uhmm it's a typo made in this reply.

The actual script is this typo not present

Ok.. so the "5" is the timeout value??? am I right?

The weird thing is, that when I use 0, it works for the other pc's... but then the other's won't work!!

Ok about the typo. Yes, the value 5 is the timeout, in seconds, so apparently just a little more waiting is needed for the function to operate successfully.

Function WinWaitActive
