How to get the Handler for windowsbased applications

[sudarkrao]

Hi,

I am trying to click on the toolbar (Tabs) avaialble in my application

As of now I succeeded to get the main window handler

When I observe the toolbar properties (Tabs ) using AutoIT window info tool the class name is dynamically changing each time i open my application and it is same for all tabs available in the toolbar and it is not having generic names and it has some name like this Class:HwndWrapper[smartClient.UI.exe;;7735dd27-48a5-4578-8225-928c34b43135] .

I want to click on different tabs by their name or index

Please sugget me how I can proceed further using AutoIT

My application is developed using .net 3.5 and it is windows based application

Thanks ,

Rama

Can you match by window title and text?

Hi,

Thanks for your reply

In my application controls(Like Tab or toolbar or links ) are not able to give any information in the controls tab available in the AutoIT window info tool .

For main window title is available and class is changing dynamically when ever i open the application

I want to write a script so that it should click on the desired controls in the application

I have used the following commands but i am not succeded

1._GUICtrlToolbar_ClickIndex($htab2, 1)

2._WinAPI_GetClassName($hwnd) .. When i use this function only msgbox ruturned the value of hadler of the main window

3._GUICtrlTab_FindTab($htab1, "Project")

Please suggest how can i proceed further

Thanks

Just curious, is this a skinned window or does it use standard Windows controls?

.Net controls are notoriously hard to automate. I'm sorry but I can't really help you on these.
