How would I?

[demonsc 0]

Hi, I'm new to Autoit, and i'm trying my best to understand this.

I'm starting to understand how Auto-It works since i know a little bit of Java, just the basics

I want to be able to use an option where i can send

Text to another Window, in a specific Edit Field...

I think you would use the

ControlSend option... I have the AutoIt Window Info.. I got the Information on where i want to send the Text to:

here it is

Class Edit

Instance 1

Classname NN Edit1

ID 1001

Text

Position 308,148

Size 108,20

ControlClick Coords 43,7

Style 0x58010080

ExStyle 0x00000204

If you guys would also help me with what statement i would type of i wanted to Change the title of another window...

If theres a Dictionary for Autoit statements could you please refer me to one,

Thanks alot!

The help file is always a good place to find AutoIt statements. I assume you have it?

ControlSetText would actually be more reliable than ControlSend though.

Well can you write me an example of how it would look like?

I'll try on my own though

Being it is a standard edit control you could also use the GuiEdit UDFs in the Beta, for example:

#include <GuiEdit.au3>

Run("notepad")
WinWaitActive("Untitled -")

$handle = ControlGetHandle("Untitled -", "", "Edit1")

_GUICtrlEdit_AppendText($handle, "This is a test of the edit functions" & @CRLF & "This is only a test")
MsgBox(0,"Test", _GUICtrlEdit_GetText($handle))
