Unable to compile a script for ANSI


 Share

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. I'm in a bit of a pickle.

I need to run a script on a Windows XP machine at work. Unfortunately, due to security issues, I cannot actually compile the script on the same machine - I have to do it at home instead, on my Windows 7 machine, and then import it in on a CD.

Now, according to this webpage, I should have an option to compile the script "for ANSI", which would allow it to work on Windows 9x machines. But here's the compiler window I get instead:

Where's the option to compile for ANSI? Is it just not possible on a Windows 7 machine? (you have to bear in mind I'm a complete noob when it comes to this sort of thing)

If it's not possible, could someone with the right machine compile the script for me? This is all it is:

$answer = MsgBox(4, "Close locations", "This script will run in five seconds. Continue?")

If $answer = 7 Then
    Exit
EndIf

Sleep(5000)

$count = 0
While $count < 1000
Send("^c")
Send("!{TAB}")
Sleep(500)
Send("^v")
Send("^{F11}")
Sleep(500)
Send("{TAB}")
Send("{TAB}")
Send("{TAB}")
Sleep(500)
Send("!e")
Send("{UP}")
Send("{UP}")
Send("{ENTER}")
Send("{ENTER}")
Sleep(500)
Send("^s")
Send("+{TAB}")
Send("+{TAB}")
Send("+{TAB}")
Sleep(500)
Send("{F11}")
Send("{TAB}")
Send("!{TAB}")
Sleep(500)
Send("{DOWN}")

Thank you!!!

From help file, Using AutoIt >> Unicode Support

Note: the Unicode version of AutoIt (AutoIt3.exe) and scripts compiled in Unicode mode will only run on Windows NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista and later machines. To allow scripts to run on Windows 9x scripts you must use an older version of AutoIt. The last version compatible with Windows 9x was 3.2.12.x.

This wonderful site allows debugging and testing regular expressions (many flavors available). An absolute must have in your bookmarks.
Another excellent RegExp tutorial. Don't forget downloading your copy of up-to-date pcretest.exe and pcregrep.exe here

PCRE v8.33 regexp documentation latest available release and currently implemented in AutoIt beta.
