Help with combo box

[CaptainBeardsEyesBeard]

Hi I'm trying to run through a combo box and had a search on google but couldn't find too much and thought maybe it's just best to post here.

So I want to do the below

Local $hWnd1 = WinWait("[CLASS:ProFrame]", "", 10)

ControlClick($hWnd1, "", "ComboBox1")
  While 1
    Send("{DOWN}")
    $ctext=ControlGetText("Find Case","","ComboBox1")
    If $ctext="Elite Matter Number (Elite Matter Screen)" Then
        ExitLoop
    EndIf
  WEnd

And this is the autoit window. At the moment it just crashes my application

Once you get the handle od the ComboBox, you can use _GUICtrl_ComboBox* functions

Cheers, so how would I use _GUOCtrl_ComboBox to find the entry in the combo box I want?

@CaptainBeardsEyesBeard
If you look at _GUICtrlComboBox_* functions in the Help file, you'll find the one that fits your needs

[CaptainBeardsEyesBeard]

So something like this right?

 

Navigation_Click_Search_Icon()
Sleep(1000)
Local $wHnd = WinActivate("Find Case") ; Focus Elite window
If $wHnd Then

 Else
    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Error", "blah blah")
    Exit
    EndIf
Sleep(1000)

Local $hWnd1 = WinWait("[CLASS:ProFrame]", "", 10)

_GUICtrlComboBox_SetCurSel($hWnd1, 2)

   EndFunc

It doesn't work at mo

The first param of _GUICtrlComboBox_SetCurSel must be the handle of the combo not the handle of the window.

[CaptainBeardsEyesBeard]

Right so it would be this?

 

Local $hWnd1 = WinWait("[CLASS:ProFrame]", "", 10)
$hComBo=ControlGetHandle($hWnd1, "", "ComboBox1")



Sleep(1000)
_GUICtrlComboBox_SetCurSel($hComBo, 2)

I'm getting this in the console at the moment 

 

"C:\Automation_Solcase\Tests\Test3_AddressBook_Agenda_History_BWLS.au3" (23) : ==> Unknown function name.:
_GUICtrlComboBox_SetCurSel($hComBo, 2)
^ ERROR

Not to worry just realised I hadn't included the header file #include <GuiComboBox.au3>

 

That's working now thanks
