Windows Save as Dialog

[Pedro93]

Hey guys im new at AutoIt and have a doubt about how to operate the Save As and Open dialog boxes that appear in Windows applications.

For an easier explanation my current test is to create a Notepad text and Save it in a specific location using the Save as Dialog. I wanted to know how to manipulate the ComboBox and SysListView32, specifically how to select an option and click (thus emulating the human action).

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks for the attention

P.S: Hi to all the community and a special thanks to AutoIt devs!
