Script will not run in Win7 - IE 8.0.7601

[tork140]

Hello all,

I've been using Autoit and the Forums since 2006 with great success hence 0 posts. I can usually find the answer or a workaround to any issue that arises except today.

I created a script that will open an IE Page and populates the SSN Field on the page. It then clicks on a lookup button and so on. When I was building the script, I used XP with IE 8.0.6001 and it worked perfectly. I go to demo the executable for my client on their machine (Win7 - IE 8.0.7601) and the script stops @ $oIE = _IECreate ("http://intranetsite.aspx") - _IELoadWait ($oIE). Maybe I am making this more difficult than need be I have tried the following:

• Turn on compatibility for the intranet site.
• Added console writes.
• Commented out the _IELoadwait.
• Manually opened the window.
• Added an _IEAttach ($oIE) statement.
• Made myself an Administrator.
• Checked all MS Logs.

The code in question is at the bottom in red. Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated as I am at my wits end. Thanks.

Do you get an error message or do you get a message from IE that the page can't be loaded? I can't reproduce, because I don't have intranetsite.aspx and because the script posted is not complete (maximum post size?).

I can however confirm that the following code snippet does work on Windows 7, Internet Explorer 8.0.7601.17514.

#include <IE.au3>

$oIE = _IECreate ("http://www.google.com")

_IELoadWait ($oIE)
