Guest Py7|-|[]/\/ Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 How do you make something like this: Send("MsgBox(0, "Hi there", "What's up?") I want it to type out the msgbox command... It errors our that "Hi quote... I tried \" like the Java escape sequence, but it doesn't work for AutoIt... How can I get this to work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_lord_mephy Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 You need to add ") to the end of that code: Send("MsgBox(0, "Hi there", "What's up?")")

strate Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 Send('MsgBox(0, "Hi there", "Whats up?")') The ' in Whats up? throws it off.

CyberSlug Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 Send('MsgBox(0, "Hi there", "What''s up?")') Send("MsgBox(0, ""Hi there"", ""What's up?"")") You could also use a variable to store the quote char or break up each string into a separate variable...

Guest Py7|-|[]/\/ Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 EDIT: Sorry for the trouble everyone, I figured it out... I acidentally made a typo while trying another method, and therefore it didn't work. Send('MsgBox(0, "Hi there", "What's up?")') This works. Sorry about confusion!

Guest Py7|-|[]/\/ Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 It works for me fine now with the "'" only the ' works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Py7|-|[]/\/ Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 Ok, well all I know is that what works is: Send('MsgBox(0, "Hi there.", "Hi there")') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_lord_mephy Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 What larry posted wouldn't work because the ' in What's would close the "quotes".
