Msgbox Options

[ossyconno]

I wondering if anyone could teach me how the if not's, until not's while's and endif's work. I put a script together in v2 and used the converter in v3, but at my point in learning script writing I am afraid I am having trouble understanding how the yes no cancel options work in the msgbox. I looked at the help files but it was just mumbo jumbo to me.

Version 2

SetKeyDelay, 5

WinActivate, Copyright Notice - Microsoft Internet Explorer

MouseMove, 448, 563

InputBox, File, Copy, Input file name you are looking for.

WinActivate, Quattro Pro 11

Send, !e

Send, f

Send, %File%

Again:

Send, !n

MsgBox, 3, Copy, Do you want to proceed now?

IfMsgBox, YES, Goto, Copy

IfMsgBox, NO, Goto, Again

IfMsgBox, CANCEL, Goto, Exit

Copy:

Send, !c

Send, !e

Send, c

WinActivate, Add new download

Send, {TAB 5}

Send, ^v

Send, {ENTER}

Winactivate, Copyright Notice - Microsoft Internet Explorer

MouseMove, 36, 72

Exit

Exit:

Exit

No wonder you're confused, so am I!

Actually what it looks like has happend is that the v2 to v3 converter has failed to convert your script properly. I would suggest that you check to see that you have the latest version of the converter (and the latest AutoIt 3, i.e. 3.0.100).

If you already have the latest version then post a bug report on the V3 support list (basically just your post with a title like "Bug in V3 converter program).

In the mean time, if you want to progress then replace

while (1); Again : beginning of loop OR Func Again ()
Send ( '!n' )

$__msgbox = MsgBox ( 3, 'Copy', 'Do you want to proceed now?' )
if NOT ( $__msgbox = 6 ) then
*** FATAL ERROR While referenced by GOTO, Again
until NOT ( $__msgbox = 7 ) 
if NOT ( $__msgbox = 2 ) then

endif;;;; Copy

with the following

while (1); Loop forever
  Send ( '!n' )

  $__msgbox = MsgBox ( 3, 'Copy', 'Do you want to proceed now?' )
  if $__msgbox = 6 then exitloop ; YES pressed - continue
  if $__msgbox = 2 then exit       ; CANCEL pressed - exit program
wend

Also remove the lines

endif;; Exit
Exit

I see the post and I will have a look at the error.

That's a long time I have not been inside AutoItV2toV3.

I am as you can have seen in the AutoIt3-gui
