Newbie Q


Recommended Posts

Hello all! I am working on a macro for school to automate a few things in my aid class and alot of the comps have different resolutions! Now what I want to do is this:

Tell the user to hover the mouse in the Novell window and wait three seconds, then play a beep or some sound and record the coordinates to a variable saved in an ini file.

Is this possible?

Oh and also is there anyway to pop a box with a text field on top of all windows asking for the password then also writing that password to the same ini file?

Yes.

While/WEnd + WinExists() + WinGetPos() + MouseGetPos() + Beep().

Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.

Thank you. But is there a way to GOTO?

Like for example:

GOTO Startup

Startup:

<some code>

GOTO Main

Main:

<some code>

GOTO Startup

I know this is an infinite loop but I hope you get the picture.

The above Beep() is a system beep anyway to do a media beep through the speakers?

Nuhh, my school uses novell too, novell kills everything, you cant even get the pixel color, it always comes out as like 0000000 and use SoundPlay() to play a windows media beep or something, and use something like

$pass=Inputbox("title","password please!")

FileWrite("something.ini",$pass)

suppose that helps?

~Cheers

Thank you so much! So if I write more than one variable to an ini file do I haft to read it every time I need to access the variable? Or can I read it once during execution and keep them in the memory?

Thanks!
