Problems with ControlClick in ntbackup wizard

[twinnis]

Hi.

I am trying to automate ntbackup via GUI and not the commandline. But problems start early. The Controlclick dont work at the first window. I am wondering if there could be a problem because I am using Swedish OS Windows XP Pro? Can it be the characters Å, Ä, Ö or is it because the control is hidden?

The AUtoIt window info show:

Press CTRL-ALT-F to pause the display.

Välkommen till guiden Säkerhetskopiera eller återställ

Den här guiden hjälper dig säkerhetskopiera eller återställa filer och inställningar på din dator.

Om du vill kan du växla till <a>avancerat läge</a> och ändra inställningar för säkerhetskopiering eller återställning. Detta rekommenderas endast för avancerade användare.

&Starta alltid i guideläge

Klicka på Nästa om du vill fortsätta.

< &Föregående

&Nästa >

Avb script:

RunWait("ntbackup.exe")

ControlClick("Guiden Säkerhetskopiera eller återställ", "Klicka på Nästa om du vill fortsätta.", 12325)

The weird thing is that the text on the button is &Nästa > but as you can se in the Window info it shows

Text: Slutför

Nästa in Swedish means Next and Slutför means Finish.

Is there anybody who can help me?

Thanks in advance.

If ControlCommand("Guiden Säkerhetskopiera eller återställ", "Slutför", 'Button4', 'IsVisible', '') Then ControlClick("Guiden Säkerhetskopiera eller återställ", "Slutför", 'Button4')

Hi.

I still havent solved the problem with AutoIt. But I guess that there is some problem with the Swedish characters because the script hang before it tries to send any mouseclicks. Its intressting that it works with VBScript as follows.

Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

objShell.Run "ntbackup.exe"

Do Until Success = True

Success = objShell.AppActivate("Guiden Säkerhetskopiera eller återställ")

Wscript.Sleep 1000

Loop

objShell.Sendkeys "%n"

But I dont know how to click on radiobuttons with VB.

Is there anyone that have any ideas on howe to solve this? I would be very grateful.

Thanks!

Best regards

It seems to be RunWait that doesn´t work with ntbackup.exe and not the Swedish characters. Instead I used WinWaitActive and the script is working fine.
