Welcome,

Maybe you can explain what it is you want to accomplish as the shown script doesn't tell us much?

I'm not sure how to explain it but there is

autoit should give first click and copy a word that is in an Excel online

then go to google and put that word in quotes
to search
then use a & start = 990 for that google throw many pages with that keyword there
autoit must then copy and paste the results on a sheet of word online

and repeat the process

my problem is that because they are too many words I want to know how I can make the script which I have

and if I want at some point pause or stop scrip do with some keyboard shortcut

this example f9 is your turn on and off key
 

HotKeySet("{F9}", "display")

$pause=True
While 1
    if not $pause then main()
    sleep(5)
WEnd
func display()
    Switch $pause
        Case True
            $pause=False
        case False
            $pause=True
    EndSwitch
EndFunc

func main()
ConsoleWrite("D= "&@SEC&@lf)
sleep(100)
EndFunc

Try this:

HotKeySet('^p','Pause') ; CTRL+P
HotKeySet('{ESC}','Quit') ; ESCAPE

Global $Pause = False

While True
    TrayTip('Msg','The script is running',1)
    If $Pause Then
        Do
            Sleep(10)
        Until Not $Pause
    EndIf
    Sleep(10)
WEnd

Func Pause()
    $Pause = Not $Pause
EndFunc

Func Quit()
    Exit
EndFunc

 

When the words fail... music speaks.

thts not a joke ,its the actual answer .....

 

There are a lot of problems in your code.

firstly, variables are constructed as such $varname, your code has $ varname (space between $ and varname)

Secondly I dont think your pause function is doing anything, "$ Not $ Pause Pause =" is not a valid syntax

 

try the suggested code above out and see how it works when ran

HotKeySet("{F9}", "display")

$pause=True
While 1
    if not $pause then main()
    sleep(5)
WEnd
func display()
    Switch $pause
        Case True
            $pause=False
        case False
            $pause=True
    EndSwitch
EndFunc

func main()
; YOUR CODE GOES HERE
EndFunc
