Grids in AutoIT

[Deepti 0]

Hi All,

I am trying to get the contents of a Grid control.

The Grid has data in X*Y form where X=rows and Y=columns.

Can anybody help me with this?

Run clipbrd to view contents.

Thanks for the quick response Ajit.

But Send("{CTRL}c")wont work here. I mean i am not able to copy anything from the Grid.

How do we deal with that?

Try manually copying it, i.e. "control + C" and see the contents, run clipbrd to see what it has copied.

1. Get grid containing window by title. You can use this to check its active state. Then use mouseclick on the grid.

2. Send("{PGUP}") to get first row or whatever. Use other send commands to scroll up and down.

3. Send("^c") to copy its contents.

4. ClipGet() to retrieve your data.

Deepti,

"{CTRL}" isn't a propper command! I'd of been suprissed if any body got it working. So, here's a list of send commands and their definitions:

"^" - Ctrl

"+" - Shift

"!" - Alt

"#" - Win

So you need to use this as a key:

Send("{DOWN}"); Selects the cell bellow - you know all that stuff
Send("+{DOWN}"); Selects multiple cells
Send("^c"); copy's selected
Send("^p"); pastes from clipboard

Kind Regards,

PS If you get stuck please don't hesitate to ask!

Hey,

Send("{TAB 4}") ; brings control to the first cell of the row.

Send("^c")

$content=ClipGet()

MsgBox(0, "Cell contains:",$content)

When i check the clipboard, all i can see is "$content" which should not be the case.

Pls suggest if i am doing anything wrong in this.

If i manually try to copy the contents of the cell, i am able to do it only after i select the content(by mouse drag).

Should I be using something like MouseClickDrag() then?
