Adia Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Hi, My company developed an application that functions as IE browser-its more like a desktop application that looks like IE browser. Can I automate it by AuoIT? I can run the program by Run() function but how do I gain control to the buttons, divs and other html objects? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrancescoDiMuro Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Hi @Adia, and welcome to the AutoIt forum If this application runs on IE, you can use _IE* functions to gain the control all over the applucation structure. Just take a look in the Help file Click here to see my signature: Spoiler ALWAYS GOOD TO READ: Forum Rules Forum Etiquette Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adia Posted July 26, 2018 Author Share Posted July 26, 2018 Thank you very much. Consider the developed app as a window and within it the IE browser exists. It means that the window wraps the IE browser so I can't create an instance of IE browser using the _IECreate() function and then apply the IE functions (from the Help file) on it. In order to use the IE functions (e.g. _IEAction() ) there is a need to attach the desktop application to IE object or instance or something else that will solve the problem.
