I used the script recorder to record a macro, and it works quite well. Basically what it does is it opens a program, runs a report, saves a file, then is done. What I want it to do is repeat the sequence for the next file down the line. The only caveat is it doesn't 'open' the file, it uses it (it is an xml document). I will post my current script. If in that folder let's say there are 10 xml documents, I want it to go down the line and do all of them, aka open bill.xml, ted.xml, robert.xml, etc til it is done with all of them. I was thinking maybe have it move all of them to a folder, open the first one, move it out of the folder, then open the 'first' one again, which will be the next one. Any input would be hugely appreciated!

Without being able to run your script using the program you use and the folder structure etc that you have I cannot tell what is happening and I would be very impressed if anyone could.

You need to isolate the part which specifies the xml file. Then put the whole script in a loop using FileFindFirst and FileFindNext. Something like this.

$search = FileFindFirstFile(@ScriptDir & "\*.xml")  

; Check if the search was successful
If $search = -1 Then
    MsgBox(0, "Error", "No xml files found in " & @ScriptDir)
    Exit
EndIf

While 1
    $file = FileFindNextFile($search) 
    If @error Then ExitLoop;there are no more xml files so quit
    
   AutogenThing($file);deal with the next xml file
WEnd

; Close the search handle
FileClose($search)

Func AutogenThing($agf)
   ;this is your original script but the part which specifies the xml file has to be isolated
   ;...
   ;...
    
   ;now the part which specifies the xml file to use
   ;do something with $agf
    
   ;now the rest of your original script
    
EndFunc

Thanks Martin! Yeah I guess it is quite confusing with all the mouse movement. All I am doing is pressing the 'next' button on a prompt screen as it steps through calculations on a portfolio. I guess I could do that with the keyboard to make it more effective. I will trial and error with this code you gave me (I have ZERO programming experience). I am a logical guy so I can 'see' what is happening, but creating it is impossible since I have no programming experience. I liken it to knowing how to use a microwave, but couldn't in a million years build one... =p

Martin, as you see I save the output report (pdf) as name.pdf, so when it finds an xml file, can it save the name (w/o .xml) and put it in where you see :

WinWaitActive("Save As","Save whole document")

Send("{SHIFTDOWN}e{SHIFTUP}rnie.pdf"

on lines 150 and 151, so instead it could say something like:

WinWaitActive("Save As","Save whole document")

Send("The name of the XML file it is currently working on.pdf" <------ obviously not literally that, but a relative reference to the name. As I do not want it to overwrite the first one.

Thank you for your time Martin!!

Send is basically a blind function, it doesn't know where it is sending the string to.

Try

ControlSend("Save As", "Save whole document", "Edit1", $file & ".pdf");Edit1 will only work if it is the first Edit control you want to send the string to

Also instead of mouse down/up try

ControlClick("Save As", "Save whole document", "Button1");again Button1 will only work if it is the first button you want to click

Search for ControlSend and ControlClick in the help file

Edit-Also check out _PathSplit in the help file.

ControlClick("Save As", "Save whole document", "Button1");again Button1 will only work if it is the first button you want to click

Search for ControlSend and ControlClick in the help file

Edit-Also check out _PathSplit in the help file.

Thanks Ken! I will try and pretty up the script tonight using your suggestions! Then maybe you could critique round 2! Will $file output 'xyz.xml' or just 'xyz'? It will not matter as it will additionally append .pdf, so it will still work. If it has .xml, I guess I could send 4 backspaces.

I am kinda new at this too, only about 6 months or so.

There are serveral ways to remove the .xml but I found _PathSplit to work the best for "me".

Check out _PathSplit in the help file.

_PathSplit($file, $Drive, $Dir, $FileName, $Extention)
ControlSend("Save As", "Save whole document", "Edit1", $FileName & ".pdf")
