Help with a Loop

[ardak2000]

Hey guys.

I've got a script designed to wait for a window to pop up and then press the requisite button to get the window to go away. This should be a very easy task to perform, but for some reason I cannot get this script to loop infinitely.  I've tried variations of all of AutoIts Loop commands, but no matter what I try the best I can do is to get it to work just once. What am I doing wrong? Here's the script in it's current iteration.

While True

$win = WinWait("DFX Message", "OK")

    ControlClick($win, "", "[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:1]")

    WinWaitClose($win)

ContinueLoop

WEnd

 

Thanks,

 

Ardak

I like to be aggressive with mine.

While 1
sleep(90)
winkill("DFX Message", "OK")
WEnd

Hi, ardak2000. Try taking the WinWaitClose and the ContinueCase out, and see what that does for you. Also, put in a Debug option at the top of your script so you can see what line the script is hanging on:

Opt("TrayIconDebug", 1)

holy cow JLogan3o13, that option is going to save me SOOOOO MUCH trouble from here on out, i sure wish i had known about that for the past 4 years instead of putting message boxes everywhere while "debugging" just to see where my script was hanging.
