multiple instances of the same application

Hi all,

I want to automate multiple instances of the the same application simultaneously, each one using another autoit script.

is it possible?

how can each script recognize the instance it is automating?

thanks

Could be possible. YOu can find windows by process or rename the windows via Autoit.

Just give it a try.

What app?

An app which extracts data from some database and displays it on the screen. I don't have the source and I don't have anyway to directly connect to the db, so basically I'm screen scraping the data I need.

How do I rename the windows?

You can also extract the data via Autoit. All you need is the connection parameters.

To set the title ... let me guess ... WinSetTitle
