CMD Click or Action

[r0br00ks]

Hi,

I have an application which calls cmd and waits for users to press any button to continue.

I tried looking around but most of the answers I found is to create a cmd from scratch.

I would appreciate if anyone can guide me on how to take an action on a cmd pop up from an application.

Welcome,

What about you start with being a little more concrete about what your are doing exactly and share what you have tried already?

So I have tried to run an exe which brings up the command line and the waits on a prompt " press any to continue"

I am new to AutoIT and what I have tried so far is using Find Tool if I could get the Visible text then I could pass the send function but it is not seeing any visible text.

I hoping someone has another way of doing this.

So show us the script you have made and possible also the au3info information of the window you like to click on.

Hi Jos,

Thank you for replying but I don't have any script made because I cannot get any information from the cmd prompt when using au3info. 

I need just a hint on how I can achieve this and I will start working on it.

I still learning with auotIT to do stuff. 

Thank You

Fine, so as stated in my first post: Supply all details and specifics on what you do exactly and avoid this 'an application" but be exact else we're stabbing in the dark.

I have a cleanup utility it is an exe file.

When I run the exe file it will bring up command prompt showing 'press any key to continue'

What I want to do is run the exe which I know how to do with AutoIT, but I don't know how to make AuotIT click any key inside the command prompt screen to continue.

Hope this is clear enough.

My exact answer to your exact information: Just open the helpfile and start reading.

Have fun reading,

can anyone be little more helpful rather than pointing me to Help which I am obviously reading and going through looking for an answer.

[Earthshine]

so, you want to send a key, right? did you read about the Send function?

You seriously don't get it ...do you?
You haven't given any information yet and yet expect help.

I am done and leave it to other to start with the guessing game ...

... ah it started already.

[r0br00ks]

Yes I tried and I have used for other installation, but this one has no title so I cannot use that Send Function.

[Earthshine]

without providing a script that we can test, there really isn't much point.

[r0br00ks]

I was able to resolve the issue.

Perhaps include your resolution, so that others searching in the future can benefit.

[r0br00ks]

Sure I used the ControlSend function.

Glad you got it fixed. In the future, if you would like assistance without the back and forth, hopefully you'll realize we need more information.
