Need help!!

[jhpark]

I have tried to implement some test program with AutoIt.

However, It is the first time so not easy to me.

I need some help!

 

I want to display result of a specific exe file at edit box.

And originally the result is displayed at window cmd

So, I implemented such as 

  " $result = GUICtrlCreateEdit("", 5, 5, 720, 600, BitOR($ES_WANTRETURN, $WS_VSCROLL))

    Run("xx.exe")

    WinWait("xx.exe", "", 2)

    local $text = WinGetText("xx.exe")

    _GUICtrlEdit_InsertText($result. $text) "

Here, "xx.exe" is the specific execute file.

In my edit box is nothing.

I don't know why..

I guess '$text' doesn't receive anything.

Why?

Do I have to use "fileopen" to display at my edit box ?

Is there any direct way to display ?

Is the title of the window you're looking at xx.exe? Otherwise you're not finding the window

[jhpark]

No, real name is not xx.exe, name is cort.exe which I received from driver company.

To check whether looking for cort.exe title of window or not, 

I used "send command", and worked correctly.

Can you post your real script so we can see exactly what it is you're doing? This line "_GUICtrlEdit_InsertText($result. $text)" is written wrong, and I don't know if it's a copy paste error, or if you really wrote it that way in your script.

Use the code box to post your script, and also, try GUICtrlSetData($result, $text) to see if that works.

hello jhpark, welcome to AutoIt and to the forum!

And originally the result is displayed at window cmd

 

if your exe is console mode, as i understand from the quote above, then to read its output you need either to redirect the output, like this:

RunWait(@ComSpec&' /c xx.exe > output.txt') 

or read the standard output stream (a.k.a. stdout), like the help file example of:

StdoutRead()
