How to simulate an "Enter" Key into a program using a GUI

[SSVegito888]

I am new to AutoIt and was wondering how to simulate an "Enter" key into a 3rd party program that is using a GUI.

Basically, I am just trying to click buttons in a GUI.

Also, where can I find basic AutoIt syntax on the web?

Welcome to the forums!

You can simulate "Enter" with Send() or ControlSend().

However, if you're clicking buttons, it's much more reliable to use ControlClick().

For online documentation, look here: http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/

It's basically the same as the help file that comes with AutoIt.

Thanks for the help; I will try this.
