If you're on Windows Vista this line won't work: "WinWaitActive("Notepad", "Do you want to save")".

For some reason AutoIt can't read vista's message boxes. If you're on XP then I'm clueless

Try this right before the code

AutoItSetOption("SendKeyDelay", 20)

AutoItSetOption("SendKeyDownDelay", 50)

or tell it to hold down alt then press N.

Send("{! down}")

Send("n")

Send("{! up}")

The problem is in your win wait active.

This works

Run("notepad.exe")
WinWaitActive("Untitled - Notepad")
Send("This is some text.")
WinClose("Untitled - Notepad")
WinWaitActive("Notepad")
Send("!n")
