tim9525 Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Dear Members, I am trying to teach Autoit to recognize several features in the file names. I tried the following two different methods using IF.....Then statements. But, none of them work. Can anyone please help?TimMethod 1:If StringInStr($filename1, "plus2" ) > 0 Then ; check if the filename is right Elseif StringInStr($filename1, "212") > 0 Then Elseif StringInStr($filename1, "252") > 0 Then Sleep(300) WinActivate("EXCEL") WinWaitActive("EXCEL") Method 2:If StringInStr($filename1, "plus2" or "212" or "252") > 0 Then ; check if the filename is right Sleep(300) WinActivate("EXCEL") WinWaitActive("EXCEL") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

water Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 BTW:To work with Excel I suggest you try the Excel UDF that comes with AutoIt.
