RunWait existing Excel sheet

[jmoe 0]

Hi.

I am brand new to Autoit so i think my problem is relatively simple. However, it is stil IMPOSSIBLE for me to solve it by myself!!

I want to open an existing excel sheet and wait until I shut down Excel, before the programming moves on. I guess I have to use the "RunWait" command?

I am using XP and the path for the sheet is currently "C:\timer.xls".

Please help.

Welcom to AutoIt and the forum!

Please have a look at ShellExecuteWait. This way you don't have to specify the whole path to the Excel executable.
