Hi All,

I'm new to AutoIt and I'm trying to generate a script that does the following;

Opens a program, File Open (Ctrl +O), Then select a study, O.K.

I have included my code. It starts the program, does the File Open and a screen pops up for the user to select a study. I have used the active window info to capture the study I want to open and included it my code. My question is this. How do I take the info from the window capture and use it to select the study I have selected?

Tks,

John
