hi im new in this and i want to know if with autoit can be make a scrip which send a key, for example 2, indefinitely, all the time sending the key "2" but with a timer, for example every 40 s. Is it possible?how? thanks and sorry for my question its too "nooby" but i just started with a3

Now that is simple:

while 1
Send("2")
Sleep(40000)
WEnd

And for your future scripting experience, read the entire Language Reference in the help file. It will get you some of the basic concepts of programming!

Yes autoit can:

While 1
send ("2")
Sleep (40000)
Wend

Also next time make your topic title more descriptive, and show us some code that you have tried. Do you have scite yet? If not, download it and also look through the autoit helpfile.

Edit: is autoit sleep in seconds? been a while

Edit2: dam too slow
