_IEFormSetElementValue help

Glenn6788 · March 29, 2017

hello. I recently cooked the hard drive on my laptop and am having some trouble re-creating my old scripts. I am having trouble setting the text in a form element from whatever is copied on the clipboard. The form doesn't have a name so I was using _IEFormGetCollection from memory,

I am trying to set the value for "LocOrLP" to what I have copied from the clipboard. Below is my html and autoit code.

Try, something like this, why don't you use the Excel UDF to get the Excel information into an Array?

$oForm = _IEFormGetCollection($oIE, 0)
$oItem = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm, "LocOrLP")
_IEFormElementSetValue($oItem, $sData)

Glenn6788 · March 30, 2017

Thanks for the reply Subz. I tried putting the index for _IEFormGetCollection to 0. It gets rid of the error but still doesn't set the value in the form. I put in a msgbox to check that it is converting the clipboard to a variable. Not sure why it's still not working?

Subz · March 30, 2017

Do you have the Excel file that you're using so I can test?

Subz · March 30, 2017

If you don't want to use Excel UDF you could use the following:

While ($i < $repeats)
    _WinWaitActivate("Locations - Excel", "")
    Sleep(100)
    ClipPut("")
    Do
        Sleep(100)
        Send("^c")
        $sData = ClipGet()
    Until $sData
    Send("{DOWN}")
    _WinWaitActivate("WAX RF - Internet Explorer", "")
    $oForm = _IEFormGetCollection($oIE, 0)
    $oSubmit = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm, "LocOrLP")
    _IEFormElementSetValue($oSubmit, $sData)
    $i += 1
WEnd

The problem is not with the excel or the clipboard variable.

Even using the below code separate from the excel altogether I still get nothing

$oForm = _IEFormGetCollection($oIE, 0)
    $oSubmit = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm, "LocOrLP")
    _IEFormElementSetValue($oSubmit, "TEST")

Subz · March 30, 2017

Which is strange because using your .htm file it fills out fine for me, using any of the code I posted above.

Glenn6788 · March 30, 2017

Definitely. I just changed from windows 7 to 8.1 enterprise. Wondering if its something to do with that? It is making me crazy this thing

Glenn6788 · March 30, 2017

do I need to make a new variable like $oIE

I am still on the same url but have navigated through different menus since _IECreate

From memory I didn't have to do this last time.

What does the following return when running in Scite:

While ($i < $repeats)
    _WinWaitActivate("Locations - Excel", "")
    Sleep(100)
    ClipPut("")
    Do
        Sleep(100)
        Send("^c")
        $sData = ClipGet()
    Until $sData
    Send("{DOWN}")
    _WinWaitActivate("WAX RF - Internet Explorer", "")
    $oForm = _IEFormGetCollection($oIE, 0)
    For $oName in $oForm
        ConsoleWrite($oName.Name & @CRLF)
    Next
    $oSubmit = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm, "LocOrLP")
    _IEFormElementSetValue($oSubmit, $sData)
    $i += 1
WEnd

Glenn6788 · March 31, 2017

it works in scite but claps out when I run the script.

Subz · March 31, 2017

Can you change ConsoleWrite to MsgBox and check that it's returning form names?

Glenn6788 · March 31, 2017

Attached is the error I get

Subz · March 31, 2017

So can try the following

While ($i < $repeats)
    _WinWaitActivate("Locations - Excel", "")
    Sleep(100)
    ClipPut("")
    Do
        Sleep(100)
        Send("^c")
        $sData = ClipGet()
    Until $sData
    Send("{DOWN}")
    _WinWaitActivate("WAX RF - Internet Explorer", "")
    $oIE = _IEAttach("WAX RF - Internet Explorer")
    $oForm = _IEFormGetCollection($oIE, 0)
    For $oName in $oForm
        MsgBox(64, "Obj Name", $oName.Name)
    Next
    $oSubmit = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm, "LocOrLP")
    _IEFormElementSetValue($oSubmit, $sData)
    $i += 1
WEnd

I think its something to do with IE.au3 compatibility with windows 8.1 and IE11

I don't seem to get errors when I add

#RequireAdmin

Kinda sucks though because I'm already a local admin.

Subz · March 31, 2017

I'm on Windows 10 Enterprise x64 with IE 11 and don't appear to have any issues.
