BruceCopperField Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 This is the first time I use GUISwitch(), but it doesnt seem to behave the way I expected:AutoItSetOption("WinTitleMatchMode",2)$r= GUISwitch("Notepad")MsgBox("","",$r)$res=GUICtrlRead("Edit1") ; can't read anythingAs a test, I tried using it to read the text of an Edit control but i always got 0x0000000 for $r (indicating a failure to switch) and the reading failed. Is it because I have never issued GUICreate()? Notepad is running but is not the active window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
