Welcome to AutoIt and the forum!

Where do you want to "type in" the data? A GUI written by you, the GUI of an application you didn't write yourself, a web page?

type into a website

i kinda figure out how to make it type with, "Send" but idk how to make the numbers increase by 1 repeatedly.

If you use the Internet Explorer as browser then the IE UDF is the way to go. There are a lot of functions to handle forms starting with _IEForm.

BTW: Please use meaningful thread titles. Everyone needs help on the General help and Support forum

i read that to make the numbers increase by 1 i should use Enum, but i dont understand how to use it. D:

Can you post what you have coded so far?

[davidzmx6637]

WinActivate("Mozilla Firefox")

Send("s_lava1")

[scope] Enum [step <stepval>] <constantlist>

Send("{tab}")

Send("upghigh")

Send("{tab}")

Send("left")

Send("{tab}")

Send("s_lava1")

[scope] Enum [step <stepval>] <constantlist>

Send("{tab}")

trying to get the numbers to increase

Which application do you want to automate?

You need a variable where you store the number. You concatenate the string part "s_lava" and the number and then send it. Sending and increasing must be done in a loop.

[davidzmx6637]

Loop meaning While 0=0 and WEnd, right?

so it would be like:

Send("s_lava" "1")?

how do i add in variable? using Const?

example please? im getting confused D:

[water]

Something like:

For $iIndex = 1 to 400
    Send("s_lava" & $iIndex)
Next
