Need Help w/ Control List View

[raj2734]

I'm trying to write a script to open lusrmgr.msc select the Guest account and change it to something else. I'm a noob to AutoIT. So far i've been able to select the account that I want to change (Guest) and now i'm trying to figure out how to rename it to something else.

CODE

$From = "Guest"

$To= "Guest1"

Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", 4)

Run(@ComSpec & " /c " & 'lusrmgr.msc', "",@SW_HIDE)

WinWait("Local Users and Groups","Local Users and Groups (Local)")

Sleep(2000)

$CLVItem = ControlListView("Local Users and Groups","","SysListView321","FindItem","Users")

ControlListView("Local Users and Groups","Local Users and Groups (Local)","SysListView321","Select",$CLVItem)

Send("{Tab}{Enter}") ;Probally a better way to do this...

$CLVItem = ControlListView("Local Users and Groups","","SysListView321","FindItem",$From)

If($CLVItem =-1) Then

MsgBox(0,"","Entry " & $From & " not found")

Exit

EndIf

;MsgBox(0,"","Entry " & $From & " at "& $CLVItem)

ControlListView("Local Users and Groups","Local Users and Groups (Local)","SysListView321","Select",$CLVItem)

#cs

I've now highlighted the account I want to change but I can't seem to find a way to rename the account.

I either need to single click it and then wait a second and send the text or

right click and go down to rename

#ce

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Look at "C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\Include\guilistview.au3" standard include file there are many usefull functions.

Zedna is right, the _GuiCtrlListView_* functions will help with that, but you would be much better served to drop the GUI entirely and learn to use the WMI COM interface for this. This demo only lists the accounts, but it can do a lot more if you learn how to use that interface:

Global Const $wbemFlagReturnImmediately = 0x10
$strComputer = @ComputerName

$objWMIService = ObjGet("winmgmts:\\" & $strComputer & "\root\CIMV2")
$colItems = $objWMIService.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_UserAccount", "WQL", $wbemFlagReturnImmediately)

$sMsg = "Local User Accounts: " & $strComputer & @CRLF & "____________________" & @CRLF & @CRLF
For $objItem In $colItems
    $sMsg &= "Name: " & $objItem.Name & @CRLF
    $sMsg &= "FullName: " & $objItem.FullName & @CRLF
    $sMsg &= "AccountType: " & $objItem.AccountType & @CRLF
    $sMsg &= "Description: " & $objItem.Description & @CRLF
    $sMsg &= "Status: " & $objItem.Status & @CRLF
    $sMsg &= @CRLF
Next

ConsoleWrite($sMsg)

Thank you both for your responses. I came up with a work around to get it to work with the Gui. However I agree that doing this without involving the Gui would be much better so i'm taking you up on your advice and looking into learning how to use the WMI COM interface. Initially I was hoping to do it via the command line but couldn't find anyway to do so went the Gui route. Thanks Again.
