BrewManNH Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Show the Control output pane information, or cut and paste the Summary screen information to your post. Make sure you're on the control on the GUI you want to work with. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

Nine Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 I feel you gonna ask for every single line of code. But anyway, Control* will do the work. Go into help file to learn about ControlSend, you should be able to write a few lines of code by yourself. “They did not know it was impossible, so they did it” ― Mark Twain Spoiler Block all input without UAC Save/Retrieve Images to/from Text Monitor Management (VCP commands) Tool to search in text (au3) files Date Range Picker Virtual Desktop Manager Sudoku Game 2020 Overlapped Named Pipe IPC HotString 2.0 - Hot keys with string x64 Bitwise Operations Multi-keyboards HotKeySet Recursive Array Display Fast and simple WCD IPC Multiple Folders Selector Printer Manager GIF Animation (cached) Screen Scraping Multi-Threading Made Easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

water Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 From a security point of view it isn't a good idea to automate the login and store userid/password in plain text in your script. If Crosslink is a professional piece of software then they provide an interface to automate the product.

Nine Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 But anyway, start by reading the help file, learn the basics, try a few scripts, and let us know if you hit a wall. It is easier for us to help with a base code. And I will be glad to give you a hand. sara123 1 “They did not know it was impossible, so they did it” ― Mark Twain Spoiler Block all input without UAC Save/Retrieve Images to/from Text Monitor Management (VCP commands) Tool to search in text (au3) files Date Range Picker Virtual Desktop Manager Sudoku Game 2020 Overlapped Named Pipe IPC HotString 2.0 - Hot keys with string x64 Bitwise Operations Multi-keyboards HotKeySet Recursive Array Display Fast and simple WCD IPC Multiple Folders Selector Printer Manager GIF Animation (cached) Screen Scraping Multi-Threading Made Easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not what I asked for. We need the information form the AU3Info Summary panel, or the Control tab, when you click on the control you want to interact with. A picture of the GUI doesn't help one bit. Just copy and paste the information for the control here so we can help you.
