Attach AutoIt Script to a Opened Program

[ma4xat]

Hi, im novice in this program.

i Want to know that how can i attach autoit to a opened program, and send keys ( inclusive if the program is minimized ).

I just get the Handle with: WinGetHandle

but dont know how to send keys to this handle directly,.

i dont want to set to active this windows, just get minimized.

Its possible?

Read in help file about ControlSetText and ControlSend.

Look here an example:

AutoItSetOption ("WinTitleMatchMode",2)
Run("Notepad.exe")
WinWait("Notepad")
WinSetState("Notepad","",@SW_MINIMIZE)
ControlSetText("Notepad","","[CLASS:Edit;INSTANCE:1]","This is a test")

What about this:

[CLASS:Edit;INSTANCE:1]

Is always the same ?

Yes. Use AutoIt Window Info to get controlID or classname from a window.
