johngio Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Hi all, Just started fiddling around with Autoit. Was trying to play around with a code to automatically alternate between an explorer window and an acrobat window. I keep getting ErrorStdOut. Here's the code: While 1 WinActivate("iexplore","") Sleep(3000) Winactivate(AcroRd32","") Sleep(3000) WEnd Can someone enlighten me please? Thanks John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

water Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Welcome to AutoIt and the forum! When you post code, could you please enclose it in AutoIt code tags? Thats the blue "A" icon in the editor.

mikell Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Saying "I keep getting ErrorStdOut" , do you mean this line "C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\SciTE\AutoIt3Wrapper\AutoIt3Wrapper.exe" /run /prod /ErrorStdOut /in ..." in Scite ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnOne Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Windows are probably not activating because the names of them are incorrect.

water Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 As JohnOne said: The names are incorrect. Don't use the process names from task manager but the titles of the windows.
