Hello,

I'm new to AutoIt and I want to learn the basics of scripting with it :-)

My first problem is, that I have a specified dialog box in Office 2003, which I want to read via WinGetText.

But AU3Info shows me on this dialog no visible text :lmao:

What I want to do:

I have serveral Word-Documents which are signed with different digital cetificates.

And I want to read the owner of the certificate (and save the results to a file).

Step by Step:

* Open a Word-Document

* Press ALT+F11 for the VB Editor

* choose menu "Options" (in German "Extras") and then click "Digital Certificate" (in German "Digitale Signatur")

It appears a dialog box which show you if the VB-Project is currently signed with a certificate (or not).

My idea is, that I could read the text of this dialog box via WinGetText and then extract the "Name of Certificate".

But unfortunately AU3Info cannot read any visible text .... ;)

Any other idea, how to get the "Name of Certificate" ?

best regards

Once more again:

There is a dialog box, and I want to extract the text via WinGetText.

But unfortunately AU3Info say there is no text or and ControlID or else.

please have a look at:

Open a Word-Document

* Press ALT+F11 for the VB Editor

* choose menu "Options" (in German "Extras") and then click "Digital Certificate" (in German "Digitale Signatur")

This dialog box makes me crazy !

I also tried here with Office'2003 and Spy++ from MS.

Absolutely no idea...

Maybe it will be draw directly to the window...

Edit: like jaenster said :lmao:

I just ran into something similar.

I upgraded Mpeg Wizard and a mesg popup box that I used to wait for no longer has a title.

I'm thinking that I might check for the absence of the windows behind it. It might work, I havn't messed around with it yet.

There are other ways to access things however using controls and classes. I havent looked at that yet either.

How about COM document properties - is it there?

Via COM thats will be a good idea!

Unfortunately I'm not familiar very with COM :lmao:

Any hint ?

Another good idea is to do it with PixelChecksum.

I think it's not neccesary to "translate" (via OCR or else) the checksum to text.

I could create some PixelChecksum-Snapshots for known text.

best regards
