Script issue

[dodger42]

I am trying to automate the installation of Symantec LiveState Recovery. Its an Installshield installer. The title bar is always set to:

LiveState Recovery Advanced Server 6.0 - InstallShield Wizard

The screen is simply a welcome splash with a Next option (Alt N, or Enter). So I have the following code:

; Script Start - Add your code below here

Run("setup.exe")

WinWaitActive("LiveState Recovery")

Send("!N")

But it just does not do the Alt N. I tried using Enter instead with the same result. I used the AutoIT window info and copied in the full Windows Details for the title, so no case or typos.

Any suggestions? I read through the FAQ and some of the docs.

I tried a quick test on setup.exe for Janes FA18 and it worked perfectly.

REgards,

Did you try the control functions (ControlClick() etc.)?

Take a look at helpfile.

Thanks Briegel, I just tried this:

ControlClick("LiveState Recovery Advanced Server 6.0 - InstallShield Wizard", "&Next >", "$primary")

But it still just sits there at the screen waiting for Next.

Never mind, I ran Scite which got it working. Thanks for the help!

That doesn't look right...

I wonder if he means the autoIT info tool.

Actually I just used the script writer from SCite. Worked perfectly. Syntax ended up being fairly different.
