How Do I Program Multiple Hotkey Funtions?

[coolness]

Here is the script that I do have. it will allow me to choose one hotkey to auto write one message. but when I try to duplicate that sectoin of code, and change [f1} to {F2} in the secound string, it says its a duplicate funtion. please help, if you can.

run("notepad.exe")

HotKeySet( "{F1}", "_Open")

While 1

Wend

Func _Open ()

send("Yes f1 wrote this.")

send("{enter}")

EndFunc ;==>_Open

that script works just fine.

this one doesn't work.

run("notepad.exe")

HotKeySet( "{F1}", "_Open")

While 1

Wend

Func _Open ()

send("Yes f1 wrote this.")

send("{enter}")

EndFunc ;==>_Open

HotKeySet( "{F2}", "_Open")

While 1

Wend

Func _Open ()

send("Yes f2 wrote this.")

send("{enter}")

EndFunc ;==>_Open

Could someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?

You only need one _Open function, you have 3 .

Wops, sorry.. well i'll correct your script:

HotKeySet( "{F1}", "_Open1")
HotKeySet( "{F2}", "_Open2")
run("notepad.exe")

Func _Open1()
send("Yes f1 wrote this.")
send("{enter}")
EndFunc;==>_Open

Func _Open2()
send("Yes f2 wrote this.")
send("{enter}")
EndFunc;==>_Open

While 1
Sleep(200)
WEnd

Mind using the normal forum font?

anyway, to answer your question:

run("notepad.exe")
HotKeySet( "{F1}", "_Open1")
HotKeySet( "{F2}", "_Open")
While 1
sleep(10000)
Wend
Func _Open ()
send("Yes f2 wrote this.")
send("{enter}")
EndFunc;==>_Open

Func _Open1 ()
send("Yes f1 wrote this.")
send("{enter}")
EndFunc;==>_Open

Thanks cd, it worked. Do you know what I would add to the script, to end on Esc hotkey?

[viking]

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate")
Func Terminate()
Exit
EndFunc

Simple as that ;-)

Thanks viking. I had to change func name, but it worked great. I mentioned earlyer about being able to run multiple hotkeys. I can run f1-f12 as hotkeys. However I would like to add a ctrl+whatever alt+whatever, as hotkeys too. example ctrl+q or ctrl+qw Or Alt+Q or Ctrl+QW. could someone tell me how to add that to the script?

Look in the helpfile under Send.

look here for how to setup hotsetkeys with winactive. This may be more of help to you. http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=23586
