Mouse stopped for no apparent reason

[simsrm]

My script was running beautifully for two weeks.  Then the mouse stopped working in the pop-up windows.  It gets to a certain point and then stops. The script just sits there.  I have rebuilt from scratch, etc... not sure what is happening.

Below is are the code and then the system information.

Windows 7 professional 64 bit.

 I have rebuilt from scratch, etc... not sure what is happening.

 

Neither are we, since you don't have an ounce of error checking in your script. You should be doing some sort of check after every action you take, either using @error (helpfile) or checking for the existence of a window if you're opening a new one.

So I am a amateur.  But how do I get the errors or tracking.  I was trying to figure out if there was a debug or something.

[Bert]

I see you done lots of work here however have you looked at using IE.au3? You could remove all the mouse clicks and make you script much more stable.

[simsrm]

I need the mouse clicks to select the different areas in the explorer and create a rolling dashboard.

I only have 7 posts for the day so if I stop posting for today I just ran out of time

So how do I create a log event.  Never had this problem before or needed to debug.  usually pretty simple.

[JLogan3o13]

That is why I pointed you to the helpfile. The helpfile states that almost every action in AutoIt returns something. So often, the syntax would be something like this:

pseudo:

<action1>
   If @error Then
      <Do something to correct the error>
   Else
      <action2>
   EndIf

That being said, DarthCookieMonster is correct: with so many mouseclicks (vs. ControlClick, for example), you are going to find it nigh impossible to do proper error checking. MouseClick is simply a "best effort" type of function.
