Select from list? Help me PLEASE (pic included)

[johnirvin]

Hello,

I would like to know if it's possible with autoit to select an option from a list without using the mouseclick() function. I provided the picture of the application (see attachment) that I am using. How can i choose Physical Network from the list at the right side without using the mouseclick function? Would ControlListView() work?

Sure, if it's a listview, try something like this:

$hWnd = WinGetHandle("Exploring DeltaV")

$hItem = ControlListView($hWnd,"","SysListView321","FindItem","Physical Network")
ControlListView($hWnd,"","SysListView321","Select", $hItem)
ControlSend($hWnd,"","SysListView321","{ENTER}")

Hi, it always selects the first item. Do you know why?

No, I don't know why. Are you sure the ClassNN is correct? Did you check with AutoIT Window Info Tool? Did you check to see that the FindItem is returning a non -1 value? What did you do to troubleshoot? Show us your code. Use the AutoIT Window Info Tool and the Helpfiles to figure out where the problem is, and try to debug a bit.

Ei, I guess there's a bug with DeltaV (the software I am automating) coz I tried to automate other window tasks and it worked. Thanks anyways.
