Sorcerer Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Hello everyone, I'm a complete newbie to AutoIt so please forgive my ignorance. I have done a fair bit of VB programming in the past. I run an application that monitors forex prices live. That application puts out audible alerts when something important happens and I want to be able to take action in another application automatically when the alerts occur, so I don't have to sit there all day waiting. How do I capture the sound events in the forex application? I think I can handle the Send instructions to the second application. Thanks in advance for any help.

Fossil Rock Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Can you capture sound events in VB ? Agreement is not necessary - thinking for one's self is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fossil Rock Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 I don't have very much experience with VB, so in that sense no, I can't help you, but you may be able to find something on the forum via the search tool ( top / right ). I think I've actually seen someone else wanting to know the same thing. Did you write the forex app ? Agreement is not necessary - thinking for one's self is!

Sorcerer Posted November 3, 2006 Author Share Posted November 3, 2006 No, I didn't write the forex app.Revised Information.The Forex Application also displays the alert in a label control. Can I capture changes to the text of a label control in one application and then automate a second application? What do I need to look up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossil Rock Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 That would be an easy task. Find AU3Info.exe in the AutoIt root folder, it's a utility to help you get control id's and such. You can then read the control and do your test. Agreement is not necessary - thinking for one's self is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
