Send Function

Can I have some help with this.

When starting the script with AutoIT Window Info running in the Window detail section the Tile is Program Manager Class Progman so I am not sure how to set the WinWaitActive statement.

How do I ensure that the variable associated with the 'Send' is sent to the right application?

This is an example of what the code might look like:

run("c:\myscripts\myscript.exe')

;

Run("notepad.exe")

WinWaitActive("Untitled - Notepad")

Send("This is some text.")

;

; Switch to myscript.exe

;

WinWaitActive(????)

Send("{NUMPAD9 2}")

Thanks in advance ;) Ant

Try using ControlSend to send the keystrokes directly to the notepad window.

I am not sure of the language so this might not be a correct description but Connection Description is a Child? screen that you get which appears in front of the Hyper Terminal Screen. It offers what connection you want to make or cancel. In my case I simply want to cancel and move to the Terminal Screen

I am trying to activate the Cancel button but this does not seem to work.

Run('c:\program files\windows nt\hypertrm.exe')

WinWaitActive("Connection Description")

Controlsend("Connection Description", "", "Cancel", "{Enter}")

Help is always appreciated ;) Ant

Open the Autoit Window Info, and put your mouse over the control you want to send the keystrokes to.

You'll se something like this:

>>>>>>>>>>> Control Under Mouse <<<<<<<<<<<

Size: X: 226 Y: 250 W: 1037 H: 701

Control ID:

ClassNameNN: OperaWindowClass18

Text:

Style: 0x56010000

ExStyle: 0x00000000

In this case you would use the function like this:

Controlsend("Connection Description", "", "OperaWindowClass18", "{Enter}")

If there's a control Id in Control ID: section, you can also use it, without the quotes, like:

Controlsend("Connection Description", "", 3, "{Enter}")

This is the Autoit Window

>>>>>>>>>>>> Window Details <<<<<<<<<<<<<

Title: Connection Description

Class: #32770

Size: X: 440 Y: 371 W: 332 H: 299

>>>>>>>>>>> Mouse Details <<<<<<<<<<<

Screen: X: 718 Y: 638

Cursor ID: 2

>>>>>>>>>>> Pixel Color Under Mouse <<<<<<<<<<<

RGB: Hex: 0xF5F5F1 Dec: 16119281

>>>>>>>>>>> Control Under Mouse <<<<<<<<<<<

Size: X: 240 Y: 229 W: 75 H: 23

Control ID: 2

ClassNameNN: Button2

Text: Cancel

Style: 0x50010000

ExStyle: 0x00000004

>>>>>>>>>>> Status Bar Text <<<<<<<<<<<

>>>>>>>>>>> Visible Window Text <<<<<<<<<<<

New Connection

Enter a name and choose an icon for the connection:

&Name:

&Icon:

OK

Cancel

>>>>>>>>>>> Hidden Window Text <<<<<<<<<<<

And neither of these work

Controlsend("Connection Description", "", "Button2", "{Enter}")

Controlsend("Connection Description", "", 2, "{Enter}")

Cheers ;) Ant

Oh, I'm sorry, I got it now.

ControlSend is supposed to send keystrokes to a control, and I'm not sure it works with buttons.

You better ControlClick it. Like this:

ControlClick ("Connection Description", "", "Button2")
