How to activate a button by name

[NoProgrammer]

I am trying to open an application and then click on button4 in the window that pops up. I can't seem to figure out the right command. I can't just tab to it as none of the buttons are active when the window opens.

maybe ControlClick... see help

Look at ControlClick() in the help file, and use AU3Info.exe in the AutoIt directory to find the buttons ControlID.

EDIT: You beat me to the punch, Val!

Thanks to both of you but the window still won't open the browser.

Run("C:\Program Files\InterVideo\DVDCopy\DVDCopy.exe")
WinWaitActive("DVD Copy")
ControlFocus("DVD Copy","Source_Browse",1101)
ControlFocus("DVD Copy","Source_Browse",1101)

Your using ControlFocus twice there. Not ControlClick next.
