Problem with Select... Case

[LovelyJane]

Hi, I am trying to have AutoIt activate whichever window of either one type, that I have currently opened, example: I have FF opened but IE and GC is closed, so I want FF window to be activated however I am not sure how to go about with this.

IE = Windows Internet Explorer, GC = Google Chrome and FF = Mozilla Firefox

Local $titleIE2 = String("AutoIt Forums - Windows Internet Explorer")
Local $titleGC2 = String("AutoIt Forums - Google Chrome")
Local $titleFF2 = String("AutoIt Forums - Mozilla Firefox")

Func ActivateWindow2()
    Select
        Case $titleIE2
            WinWait($titleIE2,"")
            If Not WinActive($titleIE2,"") Then WinActivate($titleIE2,"")
            WinWaitActive($titleIE2,"")
        Case $titleGC2
            WinWait($titleGC2,"")
            If Not WinActive($titleGC2,"") Then WinActivate($titleGC2,"")
            WinWaitActive($titleGC2,"")
        Case $titleFF2
            WinWait($titleFF2,"")
            If Not WinActive($titleFF2,"") Then WinActivate($titleFF2,"")
            WinWaitActive($titleFF2,"")
        Case Else
            Exit
    EndSelect
EndFunc

Call ("ActivateWindow2")

Is the current script failing or erroring out? I don't have the ability to duplicate your environment, so let us know what is, or is not happening and we will do our best.

Why go through all that mess, when you're simply doing a WinActivate off the title? Why not just:

While 1
    If WinExists("AutoIt Forums -", "") Then WinActivate("AutoIt Forums -", "")
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

Oh, I am sorry, did not realize about WinExists, its my first time trying this with different window titles, thank you JLogan3o13.

Decided to go with:

Local $titleTest = String("AutoIt Forums -")

Func ActivateWindow2()
    If WinExists($titleTest, "") Then WinActivate($titleTest, "")
    WinWaitActive($titleTest,"")
EndFunc

Call ("ActivateWindow2")

I assume While... WEnd is a "always on" code?

Hence the Sleep(100) to not make the CPU usage into high usage?
