narciso Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Hello, I have a AutoIt3 script that launches a third party application and automates some operations on it mainly by sending keys. I would like the script to exit when the user has closed up the controlled application. Now it remains paused on the tray which is not what I want. Thanks in advance for your help.

The Kandie Man Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Or you could do this: AdlibEnable("CheckIfStillExists",100);check every 100ms to see if the window or process has closed ;Your main script goes here Func CheckIfStillExists() If Not ProcessExists("Process.exe") Then Terminate() ;~ If Not WinExists("Application Window") Then Terminate();You could also do this if it is a window that is being closed EndFunc Func Terminate() ;Stop doing whatever it is that you are doing. Maybe give an error message, close open file handles, whatever Exit;Now exit the script EndFunc - The Kandie Man ;-) "So man has sown the wind and reaped the world.
