autoit doesn't send

[mix359]

Hi,

I'm new to autoit. I'm tring to automate the insert of a password in a field and the selection of a radiobutton.

I've started with the field, this is the first window, that is really simple

I've used the utility to catch the instance number and class type, and have done this simple script:

WinWaitActive("Deep Freeze Standard")
ControlSend("Deep Freeze Standard", "", "[CLASS:TEdit; INSTANCE:1]", "test")

THe problem is that it doesn't work. I've tried many different thing, like the #RequireAdmin, or use the Send, but it doesn't work.

I've tried to catch a text from that field, and that worked:

ControlGetText("Deep Freeze Standard", "", "[CLASS:TEdit; INSTANCE:1]")

I've tried many other action, but none of that worked. It's like a read-only access

 

Any solution?

How can I debug or have more information?

 

Thanks to all

Byez

? try to change "test" with "test{ENTER}" in the ControlSend

thanks for the answer.

I've tried it, but nothing changed.

It seam like the application doesn't accept command (I've tried a move windows and other stuff like that, but noone worked)

 

Don't know if there's an other way to insert the data (like doing the keyword and mouse action, but I think that the Send command to that)

Try before ControlSend()

WinWaitActive("Deep Freeze Standard")
ControlFocus("Deep Freeze Standard", "", "[CLASS:TEdit; INSTANCE:1]")
ControlSend("Deep Freeze Standard", "", "[CLASS:TEdit; INSTANCE:1]", "test")

if still no go try _WinAPI_Keybd_Event() instead ControlSend()

......

you say that ControlGetText worked,

what do you get from above ControlGetText? a previously send string or what else?

also did you try with ControlSetText()?
