Zisly Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 (edited) I've searched for it but could't find what i was searching for and i have checked the help file. Well i want that the script will just run in "x program" , and if i minimize the "x program" the script should still be running in just that program, so i can do other stuff while the script is doing things in the "x program" How can i do this? :S is it possible with Autoit or do i need C++ knowlege? Hope you understand what im looking for, im not that good att explaing. Thanks. Edited March 27, 2008 by Zisly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swift Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Its hard to understand with "x program" everywhere...why not just put the name, and I don't understand what your asking unless you want Control* Functions... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zisly Posted March 27, 2008 Author Share Posted March 27, 2008 (edited) I mean i make a script for "x program". I mean so it will just run in that program EVEN if i minimize the window and open like Internet Explorer. Edited March 27, 2008 by Zisly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swift Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Control*() Run() ShellExecute() Still not understanding what your asking, besides you needing to do something with Control*() functions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squirrely1 Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 (edited) Most all of the functions will work on windows that are not active, and so even if they are minimized. Exceptions that come to mind are ControlCommand and ControlClick that only work reliably on the active window. Look in the help file under User Defined Functions > IE Management Edited March 27, 2008 by Squirrely1 Das Häschen benutzt Radar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zisly Posted March 27, 2008 Author Share Posted March 27, 2008 I mean if i put the script to run notepad.exe and then it writtes thing in it, even if i use internet? Now if i open a new window it just tryis to writte something in the new-one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrely1 Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 You must be using the "Send" function - yeah - that is another exception. Das Häschen benutzt Radar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
