gharper Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Hey everyone. I've only been scripting a few days and I'm amazed how much I can automate with AutoIT. I have, however, run into an issue that has me at a loss. Basically, I need to extract some files from a .ZIP file and copy them to my PC. OK, seems like that can be pretty straight-forward. However, I run into the issue after I launch the unzip utility. The files are unzipping and the progress bar is displayed. After the progress bar completes, the dialog has a "Finished" button that I need to select. Obviously, If I code the script to tab to finish, it will perform the steps just as the progress bar is beginning and that dialog hasn't been initiated yet. Is there a command that will wait until the progress bar completes? Any workarounds you can think up? Thanks in advance!

Thanks in advance!Watch in a loop until the 'Finish' button exists and is enabled using ControlCommand(), then ControlClick() it. Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...
