Using ControlClick to click a Control!

[AndrewBuchan]

Hi,

I am trying to click a Button control on a Windows Form. The button is called btnViewOrders and the text is View , so how do I format my ControlClick? I will not always know the controlID, and even if I do it does not seem to work.

Something like:

ControlClick("Form2", "", "View")

Any ideas?

Is this a browser window? If so you need to utilize the IE functions or the FF functions.

If you don't know the control ID, you can always do something like "[TEXT: text]" in its place.

Here is an example

ControlClick("Form2", "", "[TEXT:View]")

This is also in the help file, so before you post on the form, you may want to try to use that.

I have never seen that as a Property class...where is that located? I would find that very useful for future projects.

You can use the window info tool located in your instal folder to gett the button class and instance.
