Auto-Type

[fuxasive]

Hi,

I recently found out about AutoIt, so I have no clue how to use the program yet.

I'm trying to do a simple task: get my computer to type a message in a word processing program by itself.

Any pointers?

Send("My message")

Example:

Send("#r") ; This will send Windows logo key + R (on keyboard)
WinWaitActive("Run") ; This will wait for Run option to be activated
Send("notepad.exe{Enter}") ; After opening Run it will type a command to open notepad
WinWaitActive("Untitled -") ; now it will wait for notepad to be opened
Send("Today's time/date is {F5}") ; this will send some text and will Press F5 key on keyboard which will display today's date and time.

i am also a newbie like you

Please read help file for learning it.
