Hi Subz,

Thanks for your reply.
 

My web page has a large table with multiple rows (almost close to 100). I have to copy each row into separate notepad files. so how can i select specific row using autoit??

I would use _IETableWriteToArray() function, then using the array use a loop to go through the entire array writing each line to a text file.  If you provide a url or code you have already even an example html we can assist with the code.

Why are you asking this in multiple places? Please stick to one topic. Also, it seems you are looking for someone to write the code for you - we take a "teach a man to fish" motto here, rather than you putting in a request and someone barfing up code for you. Check out the help file, and the suggestions you have been given, try the examples, and see what you can come up with. If you run into trouble, post what you have tried on your own, and we will gladly help.
