emmanuel Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 ControlSend will send to hidden windows. From the help file: ControlSend ( "title", "text", "classnameNN", "string" [, flag] ) "I'm not even supposed to be here today!" -Dante (Hicks) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scriptkitty Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 ControlSend -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sends a string of characters to a control.This works with most windows, and most of the send keys. It is one of the best ways to use send. Use autoitspy to find the control (usually Edit1, or something, or you can try it blank. ControlSend("WindowName","","","Hi I am text") Best to use the control if possible, it is more acurate. Also make sure to use the option: Opt("WinDetectHiddenText", 1) ;0=don't detect, 1=do detect It will save a few headaches. AutoIt3, the MACGYVER Pocket Knife for computers.
