jbc1 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 (edited) Hi, I want to be able to get the text inside a compiled help file during my programs execution and add it to a data structure. For example a window like the one in the attached JPEG. Is this possible in AutoIT? Thanks, jbc1 Edited March 23, 2009 by jbc1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators big_daddy Posted March 23, 2009 Moderators Share Posted March 23, 2009 You can use the _IE* functions to interact with a .chm file. Here's an example of attaching to the AutoIt Help File. #include <IE.au3> ; Register the IE.au3 Error Handler _IEErrorHandlerRegister() ; Attach to the helpfile browser window $oIE = _IEAttach("AutoIt Help", "Embedded") If Not IsObj($oIE) Then MsgBox(48, "Error", "Could not attach to the help file.") Exit EndIf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skizmata Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 The .chm format is just compressed html you can decompress it with 7zip http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.ph...094&hl=7zip and then treat it like html to parse.I would love to see what you end up with! AutoIt changed my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
