[Deter]

I am very new to the AutoIt tool and below is the script i have:
 
 

WinActivate ("File Download")
ControlClick("[TITLE:File Download]", "", "[TEXT:&Save]")

 
Click on the save button in the Download dialog box. The Download dialog box is highlighted but it is not clicking on the save button.
 
Below is from the console:
 

>"C:AutoItv3SciTeAutoIt3WrapperAutoIt3Wrapper.exe" /run /prod /ErrorStdOut /in "C:ramDesktopautoIt_First.au3" /UserParams    
+>23:04:51 Starting AutoIt3Wrapper v.14.801.2025.0 SciTE v.3.4.4.0   Keyboard:00000409  OS:WIN_XP/Service Pack 3  CPU:X64 OS:X86    Environment(Language:0409)

Yes..reading the help file and using Finder tool also..

When i am adding Debug to Console on the WinActivate and ControlClick ..it is working 

But if i just run without the debug lines it is not clicking on the save button

My guess is timing based on your debug comment - sounds like the app may not be ready for your click.  Try WinWaitActive.

Try with the control ID or the Advanced Mode value (get it with AutoIt Window Info), instead of [TEXT:&Save]

Thanks for the reply. The problem was timing issue and now it is working fine. Thanks for letting me know about Advanced Mode..
