Do you mean Visual Basic? There is no language called Visual Studio Ultimate 2010, that is a software package.

Don't know if you can convert your script - do you know C++? :P

If you're looking for a tool that does it, i'm guessing nope. Would be neat though :x

Yes, you use VS, however it is not a language, so you can not convert it.

What language do you program in with VS?

It won't happen because AutoIt is dynamically typed, whereas C++ is statically typed. Conversion from C++ to AutoIt may be possible (easy even, although the output would be a tad untidy), but the other way would mean there would be circumstances where the type changes in AutoIt and you will be bending C++ into something it doesn't really want to be. I'm not saying impossible, I'm saying it's not really of any use. AutoIt and C are too different to make it feasible.

Also, why would you want to, what practical application would this serve?

Post your code because code says more then your words can. SciTe Debug mode - it's magic: #AutoIt3Wrapper_run_debug_mode=Y.

At the risk of sounding an idiot, what is the difference between static and dynamic?

Yes I know a bit of C++ (I can do command prompt applications), however i do not know the diff?

thx

It's when the data type of a variable is set upon its declaration, as in C, as opposed to a variable whose data type is determined upon access, as in AutoIt.

EDIT: Typo

C++ can have dynamic types. What do you think AutoIt was written in?

Yes I found that you can get C++ source codes.
