Sending ALT-n not working in Notepad Tutorial

[trebliG]

When I followed the Notepad tutorial (from Online Documentation), the last line Send ("!n") to execute or click the Don't Save button does not work. An AutoIt icon appears below the screen showing "Script Paused" is all I get when I run the npad.au3 tutorial program and the Notepad dialog does not get dismissed. I am using Vista Business.

Opt('WinTitleMatchMode', 4)
Run('Notepad.exe')
WinWaitActive('Untitled')

Send('keys')
Sleep(1000)
WinClose('Untitled')
WinWaitActive('[REGEXPTITLE:^Notepad$]')
Send('!n')

Try this sample.

You need to suspend the script according to an expected event because otherwise it won't find the correct window this send is intended for and thus may sleep infinitely or pause because it's waiting for a specific window.

Thanks Authenticity!

I just replaced the WinWaitActive statement with the one you suggested and it works!!!

hmmm... I wonder if they would make a change to the documentation so new users won't run into the same problem I encountered!?
