Using AutoITX in Visual Basic 6 Demo available

[sl_alagappan]

Have attached a zip containing a very small project just to show how to use AutoItX DLL in Visual Basic6.

It will check whether notepad window is open. If not, it will open Notepad and send some text to the notepad.

Could be useful for the beginners to start with.

Good Idea,

You did not recognize it because you did not add Option Explicit but:

You have a typo that should be corrected

Set cauotoit = Nothing

Should be

Set cAutoit = Nothing

_????? functions are UDF's (User Defined Functions, which are functions coded in regular AutoIt3 syntax. so they will not work in the dll version since it requiers an #include <array.au3> .......

You can't. You need to find a native way to learn such information.

Thanks very much. Indeed this is VERY helpful. I had zero experience in using AutoIt as an ActiveX object from within Visual Basic (2005) and this got me started right away. This should stay on top of the ActiveX forum.
