I have been using Autoit 3.3.8.1 and Scite 3.2.0 on a win 7 laptop since 2013

I just got a new laptop running Win 11 and it seems that Scite has abnormalities on my Win 11 laptop.

When I start typing an existing Variable, no drop down list appears of all variables that match what I have typed so far.

I am wondering if Autoit is compatible as well.

Thanks for your help

With version 3.3.16.1 the scite editor works properly.

Very, odd though.

The reason that I was reluctant to install the latest version is that about 5 or more years ago, I installed the newest version of Autoit and I discovered that the UDF functions

Word Management, about 15 different functions, disappeared,  gone.

With the installation that I just did today, the functions are there.

But here is a problem I am having on the win 11 laptop:

I have copied over a fully functioning script from my win 7 laptop to my win 11 laptop and i find this line of code producing an error:

$miDoc = ObjCreate("MODI.Document")

Am I missing a dll or something?

Thanks

Yes. Unfortunately the MODI stuff is not in newer versions. It worked with 2003 and 2007.
No reason for 2007 not to work in Win11, Works on Win10.

Usually I do all my coding in virtual machines. It makes it easier to code and have a bootable PC too ( as in eat your cake and have it too ). Anything goes wrong, replace the "HardDrive.vm" ( or however is named ) and keep going  ;)

Follow the link to my code contribution ( and other things too ).

You would need to check that Office 2007 components can be installed along side Office 2019 as Office Click-to-Run installations (Office 2019+) and Office Msi installations (2016 and below) are incompatible.  Some Office products less 2010 and below I've found do work as Click-to-Run won't try to detect them.  But agree with argumentum, I'd just use a Windows vm.  Keep your Windows 11 up to date and use your vm for legacy.

As per Microsoft, downloading MDI to Tiff converter installs MODI:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/install-modi-for-use-with-microsoft-office-2010-4fbd3076-6d01-9cb7-c574-3bbabc9eead9

I installed it and now I get :

Variable must be of type "Object" for $miDoc.Create($temp)

Before installing MDI to Tiff converter I got an error on the line previous to this line ($miDoc = ObjCreate("MODI.Document")

Here is the code again:

Func OCR_Region($x,$y,$width,$height)  ;note $height is NOT the height, it is the Y coordinate bottom right corner, width is bottom right corner X.

    Dim $miDoc, $Doc
    Dim $str
    Dim $oWord
    Dim $sArray[200]
    Dim $oMyError
    Dim $HexNumber
    Dim $msg
    Dim $i
        ;Const $miLANG_CZECH = 5
        ;Const $miLANG_DANISH = 6
        ;Const $miLANG_DUTCH = 19
        Const $miLANG_ENGLISH = 9
        ;Const $miLANG_FINNISH = 11
        ;Const $miLANG_FRENCH = 12
        ;Const $miLANG_GERMAN = 7
        ;Const $miLANG_GREEK = 8
        ;Const $miLANG_HUNGARIAN = 14
        ;Const $miLANG_ITALIAN = 16
        ;Const $miLANG_JAPANESE = 17
        ;Const $miLANG_KOREAN = 18
        ;Const $miLANG_NORWEGIAN = 20
        ;Const $miLANG_POLISH = 21
        ;Const $miLANG_PORTUGUESE = 22
        ;Const $miLANG_RUSSIAN = 25
        ;Const $miLANG_SPANISH = 10
        ;Const $miLANG_SWEDISH = 29
        ;Const $miLANG_TURKISH = 31
        ;Const $miLANG_SYSDEFAULT = 2048
        ;Const $miLANG_CHINESE_SIMPLIFIED = 2052
        ;Const $miLANG_CHINESE_TRADITIONAL = 1028

        Local $hBitmap1,$hImage1,$temp
        $temp=@ScriptDir & "\temp.bmp"
        _GDIPlus_Startup ()
        ; Capture screen region
        $hBitmap1 = _ScreenCapture_Capture ("",$x, $y, $width, $height, False)
        $hImage1 = _GDIPlus_BitmapCreateFromHBITMAP ($hBitmap1)
        _GDIPlus_ImageSaveToFile ($hImage1, $temp)
        _GDIPlus_ImageDispose ($hImage1)
        _WinAPI_DeleteObject ($hBitmap1)

        $miDoc = ObjCreate("MODI.Document")
        $miDoc.Create($temp)
        ;MsgBox(0,"",$temp);this is the bitmap image which is "temp.bmp"
        $miDoc.Ocr($miLANG_ENGLISH, True, False)

        $i = 0
            For $oWord in $miDoc.Images(0).Layout.Words
                $str = $str & $oWord.text & @CrLf
                ;ConsoleWrite($oWord.text & @CRLF)
                $sArray [$i] = $oWord.text
                $i += 1
            Next
            FileDelete($temp)
            Return $sArray
        EndFunc

Thanks for your elp

It works ok on my win 7 laptop

I ordered a full install of Office 2007 on Ebay

I'll see how that goes.

Thanks
