Using the AutoItX3Lib as reference in C# app

[andypicch]

I am trying to use the AutoIx3.dll. I referenced it as a COM object and tried Control Command first. Here is an example of what I did:

label1.Text = autoit.ControlCommand("Form1","","WindowsForms10.LISTBOX.app61","GetCurrentSelection","");

The return value is "1".

label1.Text = autoit.ControlCommand("Form1","","WindowsForms10.LISTBOX.app61","SelectString","ListItem2");

The selection doesn't change.

label1.Text = autoit.ControlCommand("Form1","","WindowsForms10.COMBOBOX.app61","ShowDropDown","");

("Form1","","WindowsForms10.COMBOBOX.app61","HideDropDown","");

these work, but...

("Form1","","WindowsForms10.COMBOBOX.app61","SelectString","C");

will not change the selection.

Anybody have any suggestions?

Instead of using ControlCommand, have you tried using AU3_ControlListView??? I'm just guessing here, but the control you're trying to manipulate is a ListBox?

no, because that would be the easy way, and this would be easier:

listBox1.SelectedItemIndex = 2;

comboBox1.ShowDropDown();
