help im noob

[mcbain]

tried for a while but failed

i was wondering how to simply make a program that will do this process: "Press enter - type somthing - press enter again" every 5 mins

no popups or windows, it will just do this process

Have you opened the helpfile ? I seriously doubt it, because if you did, how could you miss the logic ?

AutoIt -> Function Reference -> Keyboard Control

run("notepad")

while 1

send("{Enter}")

send("Type something")

send("{Enter}")

sleep(50000)

wend

maybe this will help

[thenewkid]

well whats the game name where is it to type ...

@thenewkid : Way too kind...this is as basic as it gets and he should be able to find the answer to

this one after 1 minute of logical fumbling in the helpfile. See...he couldn't even figure out the part that

send the actual key-presses even though you made it pretty clear.

@mcbain : Think about how insanely descriptive your topic-title is...the only information in it shows

your view of your own skills in AutoIt. Does that help anyone ? What about describing the actual problem ?

[mcbain]

i just want it to type only in the current window

int he game u type by pressing enter "type" then release by pressing enter again

[thenewkid]

use MouseClick for where you want it to start typeing anduse the send to send the text and send("{Enter}") to send it to get the info for mouseclick use the autoit info window< a tool everyone uses

[mcbain]

ok so coords are 490,490 and put click thing b4 it starts enter?

[thenewkid]

can you up load a screen shot and high light where you want it to send the text?
