Unable to extract Window Information

[Guest SimonBoote]

Hi,

I'm am completely new to this so be gentle with me.

I want to run an automated script based on the variable info of an application. However, when I run AutoIt window iinfo, it doesn't recognise the text I want to use.

Does this make sense?

Can anyone help?

Thanks

did you give the focus to the application window?

what application do you want to read information from ?

What information did au3info return?

The window was active and au3info returned other window info including hidden text.

The application is a poker calculator, Texas Calculatem, which returns info on how to play a hand. It is quite good and I imagine that if you could take the emotion out of playing and played purely on a mathematical basis, it may make a useful tool. However, you can't beat a bluff.

It's just a thought a the mo, but I'm sure it could be done.

Thanks
