Drop Down menu selection not working. Help please!. Tks

[copiche]

Hello,

I have a script that is supposed to launch an ICA file and then it is supposed to login with a username and password which it does with no problems.

However I need to make autoit choose an ALT+L+L then {Down} and then choose the "Show Board" drop down option which has the underlined "B" in the drop down menu, shown here:

 

Autoit, then hangs in the above screen (it chooses the ALT+L+L{Down} option fine); however the "Show Board" never happens and it stays in the above stage.

Here is my Autoit Script:

Run("c:program filescitrixica clientwfica32.exe C:surginettrackingSurginetTrackingGreaseboard.ica")
Sleep(20000)
Send("xxxxxx")
sleep(1000)
Send("{TAB}")
Sleep(1000)
Send("xxxxxxx")
Sleep(1000)
Send("{ENTER}")
Sleep(9000)
WinWaitActive("SNSurgiNet Organizer for SURGINET, SNCSGI - Remote")
Send("!ll{DOWN}B")
While ProcessExists("wfica32.exe")
      Sleep(10000)
   WEnd
Shutdown(0)
 

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

It is hard to guess why it does not work without having the program that you are using it with. Normally you do not need to send the {DOWN} as sending the l should open the menu. I would try adding a sleep before sending the B. Also try both upper and lowercase b

Send("!ll")
Sleep(500)
Send("B")

Alternatively you could use.

Send("!ll")
Sleep(500)
Send("{DOWN 9}{ENTER}")

That did it!, the Sleep was missing. I kept the {DOWN} in like:

Send("!ll{DOWN}")

Sleep(500)

Send("B")

And it worked!.

Thank you very much
