Guest ajg23 Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 Using NetMeeting to take over my Mom's computer (doing some programming work for her), I installed AutoAct hoping to do some great automation But when I run a script that runs without problems on my machine, it gives an error: Line 1: dim $myTimer Error: Unknown Command It's just a dim! Tried making a new file with just dim $t and got the same result. We're both running Win XP. I didn't get to reboot her system since install but that shouldn't matter. Of note, initially the script I sent over to test out got named *.au3 rather than *.aut, but I renamed it after forcing it to run with the wrong extension...Don't know what else to say! Thanks for any help, A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberSlug Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 What version of AutoIt?AutoIt v2 uses the *.aut file extension; AutoIt v3 uses the *.au3 extension. Dim $myTimer is valid v3 syntax, but invalid v2 syntax.Download the newest official version of AutoIt v3. (Or you can dowload the cutting-ege unstable AutoIt version that has support for creating GUIs.)
