Help with error Msg

[Cyote101]

I had created a small script and copiled it to an EXE file, everything works great on my computer. When i sent to to someone else, they got an error. "Unable to Run Script"

has anyone else run into such problems? or does anyone know how to fix this.

Here is a sample of the script i compiled

$pos = MouseGetPos()

MouseMove($pos[0], $pos[1] - 100)

MouseDown("right")

MouseUP("right")

Send("p")

Send("p")

I don't see "Unable to Run Script" in that code. Where did this message come from?

I have a hunch that the other machine was Vista.

Try putting #RequireAdmin at the top of your script.

The error is "Unable to open the script file" and the computer they are using is windows XP. The exe is running off of a CD, when i had them copy it to their HD they got the same error?

Thanks, Any Ideas?

When you complied the script, did it by chance create a secondary file with the same name, but a different extension? I have noticed that occurring to some of my scripts in the past. When that does happen I need to have both files to run the script correctly.

Well I hate to say it but I think you should post the code. Something is definitly wrong. You didn't do something foolish like use ShellExecute("Myscript.au3") did you? Edited March 3, 2008 by GEOSoft

This is the Code of my Script

$pos = MouseGetPos()

MouseMove($pos[0], $pos[1] - 100)

MouseDown("right")

MouseUP("right")

Send("p")

Send("p")

And what makes you think it's not working? It could be that there is a difference in the way the mouse buttons are set up. If the other person is left handed then the buttons have probably been switched. Better to use "Primary" or "Secondary" as the situation requires. It the mouse is set up for right-handed then the "Right" button is the one on the right which is also the "Secondary". If it's set up left-handed then the button on the right is the "Primary". So if you are right-handed and the code works for you then change the MouseUp() and MouseDown() lines to "Secondary".

I think I got that straight.

Kerros,

Thanks, You were on the right Track I have resolved the Problem, by having both the exe and the compiled script code both together on the CD in the Same directory.

George, you brought up a good point i will change the script with the "Primary" "secondary" method. Thanks, very good point!

Thanks to every one else too for your help!

I downloaded and re-installed both SCITE and AutoIT with the latest versions and all is OK now.
