acewarner Posted October 22, 2012 Author Share Posted October 22, 2012 Thanks that cleared the error, but the next window in the program installation process can take either of the following keystrokes to engage the "Next" radio button. Either an ALT N, a space, or an enter command works when I do it manually. I know how to use the Send("{ENTER}"), I have tried the Send("!n") for ALT N, and the Send("{SPACE}") for space. None of these work and I am still getting the same script error as I listed above. The program is pretty simple. But I am pretty sure that I am just screwing up something simple.;1.Launch uninstaller if it exists ; If FileExists ("c:Program FilesPharosbinUninst.EXE") Then run("c:Program FilesPharosbinUninst.EXE") ;2.Wait for the window to exist WinWait("Pharos Uninstallation","Welcome to the Pharos Uninstallation program.") ;if it exists, continue If WinExists("Pharos Uninstallation","Welcome to the Pharos Uninstallation program.")

BrewManNH Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 What is the error message you're getting, the exact message from the Scite console would be helpful, as well as any other pertinent information displayed there. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

guinness Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Why not use Au3Info and ControlClick? Because using Send can cause problems if the window doesn't have focus or a window in the background pops up randomly.
