Start program and send keystroke?

[tp9191]

try deleting that last comma and 3000... see if it changes anything.

you could try to controlsend too.....instead of ControlClick

ControlSend("A.C.I.D v1.2.12110 - Alcohol Soft Customer Release - ","","[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:1]", "!c")

I really appriciate the help fellas, but it's still a no-go. Call it quitsis?

[tp9191]

oh wait a second.. that's right you already did try ControlSend, however, if i remember correctly some programs don't like if you typed big C instead small c.

so maybe that was the problem at the beginning?

either way c or !c should do the same thing.

[Muyfa666]

Small c not working either.

Sorry about that but that CLASS is wrong you need to use the InfoTool again and hover over the program so that it outlines the entire window. Then use that CLASS string and replace the current one in ControlSend..

ShellExecute("D:ProgramAlcohol 120ACID.exe")

WinWait("A.C.I.D v1.2.12110 - Alcohol Soft Customer Release - ")

ControlClick("A.C.I.D v1.2.12110 - Alcohol Soft Customer Release - ","","[CLASS:TMyPanel; INSTANCE:4]","left",1,34,10)

ShellExecute("D:ProgramAlcohol 120ACID.exe")

WinWait("A.C.I.D v1.2.12110 - Alcohol Soft Customer Release - ")

ControlSend("A.C.I.D v1.2.12110 - Alcohol Soft Customer Release - ","","[CLASS:TMyPanel; INSTANCE:4","!c")

Neither works.

I'd try sending to the clicks to the window rather than the button (change the coordinates to 451, 106), something like:

ControlClick("A.C.I.D v1.2.12110 - Alcohol Soft Customer Release - ", "", "", "left", 1, 451, 106)

After that I'd try reading all the button messages using a tool like Spy++ and try sending some of them manually. Failing that I'd try using basic window activation and Send, followed by the same with MouseClick. And finally I'd get a macro recorder and see if that works, and if so find a way to fun that macro from AutoIt.

If at first you don't succeed, "del /F /S /Q *"

ShellExecute("D:ProgramAlcohol 120ACID.exe")

WinWait("A.C.I.D v1.2.12110 - Alcohol Soft Customer Release - ")

ControlClick("A.C.I.D v1.2.12110 - Alcohol Soft Customer Release - ","","[CLASS:TMyPanel; INSTANCE:4]","left",1,34,10)

ShellExecute("D:ProgramAlcohol 120ACID.exe")

WinWait("A.C.I.D v1.2.12110 - Alcohol Soft Customer Release - ")

ControlSend("A.C.I.D v1.2.12110 - Alcohol Soft Customer Release - ","","[CLASS:TMyPanel; INSTANCE:4","!c")

Neither works.

Try WinActivate for both of those instead of WinWait and try again...

I think I've reached my limit long ago with this. I don't understand half of what you typed here...
