okdewit Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 (edited) I am trying to remove a few buggy controlclicks from my application, and replace them with Enter-keypresses. The program runs on the background. Somehow this code doesn't work. The DllCalls give a @error = 0, so they should work. I also checked the handle code for the window, and its the right one. I tried different Ascii codes, and I tried to use Asc($char). Anyone know what could be wrong? Global Const $WM_KEYDOWN = 0x0100 Global Const $WM_KEYUP = 0x0101 Global Const $WM_SETFOCUS = 0x0007 Global Const $WM_KILLFOCUS = 0x0008 Run("notepad.exe") WinWaitActive("Untitled - Notepad") $hwnd = WinGetHandle("Untitled - Notepad") DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "SendMessage", "hwnd", $hwnd, "lparam", $WM_SETFOCUS, "wparam", 0, "lparam", 0) DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "PostMessage", "hwnd", $hwnd, "lparam", $WM_KEYDOWN, "wparam", 13, "lparam", 0) DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "PostMessage", "hwnd", $hwnd, "lparam", $WM_KEYUP, "wparam", 13, "lparam", 0) DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "SendMessage", "hwnd", $hwnd, "lparam", $WM_KILLFOCUS, "wparam", 0, "lparam", 0) Edited January 5, 2008 by okdewit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siao Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Somehow I think you really want to be sending these messages to Notepad's edit control, not the main window. $hwnd = ControlGetHandle("Untitled - Notepad", "", "[Class:Edit]") "be smart, drink your wine" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okdewit Posted January 5, 2008 Author Share Posted January 5, 2008 Thanks! That answers my question, and solves my problem. I never knew there was a thing like ControlGetHandle()... By the way, I'm new on this forum, so in case you were wondering: I am an IT-consultant, and use Autoit for automating the "OOBE" process. We copy some files, change a few pictures, so the PC will leave with our logos and settings. I want this automated process to run in the background, so I'm not bothered by it. I also want to make a few silent-install scripts, and make some fixes for commonly encountered problems. Orian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
