Hi I am new to AutoIt. I am using ControlClick function to click on a custom tab in outlook whose position is not static but this function is not working at all for me.

Given below are the details of that tab tracked using Finder tool:

"this function is not working at all for me"

Show code, and elaborate on the problem and the return value and @error state of any functions you use.

As J1 alluded to, you could not have possibly provided less information if you'd been trying. Start with something basic, like which control in Outlook you're trying to click on or what your overall goal is.

Hi,

I want to click on a tab in Outlook whose position may vary. So I don't want to use mouseClick function as it accepts the coordinates.

The function I've used is:

ControlClick("Inbox - Nupur@sample.org - Outlook","","[CLASS:NetUIHWND, INSTANCE:1]")

 But it is returning 0. Details of finder tool are given in first thread.
