send item and win 7 x 64

[blackdog64]

Hi all,

I've just followed the tutorials (hello world and notepad) and I'm using the x64 version on AutoIt (latest version).

Problem is, send yes or no does not seem to work under win 7 x 64. Or, most likely, I'm doing something stupid. Below is the code as per the notepad tutorial:

; Script Start - Add your code below here

Run("notepad.exe")

WinWaitActive("Untitled - Notepad")

Send("This is some text")

WinClose("Untitled - Notepad")

WinWaitActive("Notepad", "Do you want to save")

Send("!n")

From meddling about, it seems that Send("!y") does not work either: the dialogue box pops up and wants me to select yes or no. Also, am I right thinking that there's no way to automatically select Yes or No for UAC? Send string (as above, "this is some text" works fine.

Any help appreciated!

This version works fine in Win7 X64:

Run("notepad.exe")
WinWaitActive("Untitled - Notepad")
Send("This is some text")
WinClose("Untitled - Notepad")
WinWaitActive("Notepad", "Do&n't Save")
Send("!n")

Just use au3info to find the info of the dialog windows that is available for you.
