Just loaded AUTOIT and cannot get the TOOLTIP feature to work.

I tried the example for my first script:

MsgBox (0, "My First Script", "Hello World")

I did not get any tooltip box to pop up.

I tried many ways and need help.

Thanks so kindly.

MsgBox() opens a message box... not a tooltip. ToolTip() will show you a tooltip. Does this work for you?

ToolTip("Hello World!!!")
Sleep(3000)

No ... When I type the M key a tool tip box should pop up that lets me select all the M commands ... this does not happen.

Also when I type (MsgBox) A tooltip feature should show me all the command paramaters.

Thanks for trying to help me.

In addition ... When I type the F5 key my code does not execute. I'm not sure if I have all the executables for auto-it installed properly.

Looks like 1.74 is the most recent one.

Just checking but have you saved your script with a .AU3 extention? Until you've done this the special AutoIt tools in Scite will not work.

It does save as .AU3 extension.

I'm trying to re-install the software. I've got no idea why it doesn't work.

YAY!!!! :D

It works now.

I did not have administrator privileges. Our IT group gave me admin rights for AUTOIT and then it worked.

Thanks for all of your attempts to help.

David.
