no sutch function -WindowWaitActivate

[Thundagar]

i have this code so far some captured using recording (the for loop is set to 1 loop until i can get the rest of script working correctly) When i try to run it i get an error message saying that _WindowWaitActivate function does not exist. do i need to add something to this to make it work? every where i searched for the window wait function it doesnt say i need to add anything so getting a litle confused.

for $i = 1 to 1
    MouseClick("left",91,8,1)
    sleep ( 1000 )
    Send("{CTRLDOWN}c{CTRLUP}")
    sleep ( 1000 )
    _WinWaitActivate("Data Entry - Torp - Asure ID","")
    MouseClick("left",538,93,1)
    sleep ( 1000 )
    _WinWaitActivate("Find","")
    sleep ( 1000 )

Hi,

Welcome to the autoit forum

Br, FireFox.

Thanks for the welcome . but when i search for _windowwaitactivate i only find my own post. as i found none before that :/  if search for function not found i find 1000 posts but didnt find one related to the _windowwaitactivate that i could find.. honestly tho i didnt check all 1000 posts I did try to google this topic before i joined the forum. but i find lots of information just not anything that has helped me solve my problem. So if any one could just point me in the correct direction i will probably figure it out but not from what i have found so far.

ok so type: "au3record function"

Your looking for winwaitactive, not windowwaitactive

Your looking for winwaitactive, not windowwaitactive

Actually it's _WinWaitActivate, which is a function the AU3Recorder is supposed to create when you save the recording. It's just a wrapper around winwait and winactivate.

Thanks for the answers did find out what i was missing. and just incase some one else searches I'll add it here
This is the code that was added from running the recorder inside the script program and not just the autorecord executable in the autiit folder. 

Oh and yes obviously i did type the title wrong should have been _WinWaitActivate 

#region --- Au3Recorder generated code Start (v3.3.9.5 KeyboardLayout=00000414)  ---
#region --- Internal functions Au3Recorder Start ---
Func _Au3RecordSetup()
    Opt('WinWaitDelay',200)
    Opt('WinDetectHiddenText',1)
    Opt('MouseCoordMode',0)
    Local $aResult = DllCall('User32.dll', 'int', 'GetKeyboardLayoutNameW', 'wstr', '')
    If $aResult[1] <> '00000414' Then
      MsgBox(64, 'Warning', 'Recording has been done under a different Keyboard layout' & @CRLF & '(00000414->' & $aResult[1] & ')')
    EndIf

EndFunc

Func _WinWaitActivate($title,$text,$timeout=0)
    WinWait($title,$text,$timeout)
    If Not WinActive($title,$text) Then WinActivate($title,$text)
    WinWaitActive($title,$text,$timeout)
EndFunc

_AU3RecordSetup()
