This instruction does nothing since you are not storing the handle of the file to use later in _FileCountLines(). Then, you could use AdLibRegister() to repeat the task every specific amount of time, or even use FindFirstChangedNotification() API to see if the file has been modified, and trigger the script to read the last 7 lines of the log file

GuiFlatButton is a UDF to easily create regular buttons with different colors for background, foreground, border, hover, focus, etc.. This started as an effort to change the background color of a button and eventually grew into a full UDF. If you've looked around forums for changing button background colors, you have probably noticed that each proposed workaround has its own set of issues/side-effects. The answers usually circle back to 'use ownerdrawn buttons' and 'not worth it'. Well, now it is possible for anyone to easily create ownerdrawn buttons - totally worth it! Some issues with other workarounds such as drawing with GDI+ or using a colored label as a 'button': Not 'real' buttons so you lose built-in functionality that windows gives to buttons Messy / inefficient code in the main while loop to check for mouse position Slow to respond to click, paint, etc... Having to deal with GUIRegisterMsg messages Not straight-forward to implement GuiFlatButton is not a workaround; it is a technique to respond to Windows' built-in owner-drawn button events. With minimal effort, we can now create true simple colored buttons. The idea is to create an owner-drawn button using GUICtrlCreateButton then subclass the GUI and controls to handle the button-specific events to paint it however we want. This UDF magically does all of this for us! No need to worry about event handling or main while loop logic. How to use It couldn't be any easier! Simply create a new button using the familiar syntax. This creates an ownerdrawn button with default colors. $mybutton1 = GuiFlatButton_Create("Button 1", 78, 20, 120, 40) If you want to change the background and text colors: GuiFlatButton_SetBkColor(-1, 0x5555FF) GuiFlatButton_SetColor(-1, 0xFFFFFF) Advanced Usage Set background/text/border all at once GuiFlatButton_SetColors(-1, 0x0000FF, 0xFFFFFF, 0x9999FF) Set ALL colors for ALL button states!

Ok. I went to TDAmeritrade, look like your screen shot. So, lets go back to your request. You will have to declare a variable before the loop. Then increase that variable in first found. And when in second found execute your operation the variable time and set it to 0 after. Try putting something together and come back with you attempt if it fails.

Global $g_sFilePath = @ScriptDir & "\FileName.txt" Global $g_a2DArray[][] = [[2, 5],[390, 480], [809, 870], [870, 959], [959, 1139]] Global $g_iMax = 60, $iElement = 0 ; ConsoleWrite($g_a2DArray[UBound($g_a2DArray) - 1][1] & @lf) For $i = 0 To $g_a2DArray[UBound($g_a2DArray) - 1][1] ; 0 To 1139 Select Case $i < $g_a2DArray[$iElement][0] FileWriteLine ($g_sFilePath, $i & @TAB & 0) Case $i <= $g_a2DArray[$iElement][1] FileWriteLine ($g_sFilePath, $i & @TAB & Random (0, $g_iMax)) Case Else $iElement += 1 $i -= 1 EndSelect Next MsgBox(0, "", "Done")

Maybe something like: Global $g_sFilePath = @ScriptDir & "\FileName.txt" Global $g_a2DArray[][] = [[2, 5],[390, 480], [809, 870], [870, 959], [959, 1139]] Global $g_iMax = 60 For $i = 0 To UBound($g_a2DArray) - 1 If ($i >= $g_a2DArray[$i][0]) And ($i <= $g_a2DArray[$i][1]) Then FileWriteLine ($g_sFilePath, $i & @TAB & Random (0, $g_iMax)) Else FileWriteLine ($g_sFilePath, $i & @TAB & 0) EndIf Next

I searched for "excel comment size set visual basic". "Visual Basic" returns example code that can easily be translated to AutoIt.

@maniootek A quick Google search turned up this link for me. This line is the one of interest -- xComment.Shape.TextFrame.AutoSize = True Should be pretty easy to convert that to Autoit and test it.

@FrancescoDiMuro is right. Moreover, if you run your script in a loop, you may face a memory leak as the file is never closed. Either use the file handle and close the handle after usage or remove the FileOpen statement completely.

Example: Global $oComment = $oExcel.Activesheet.Range("A1").AddComment $oComment.Text("Test") $oComment.Shape.TextFrame.Characters.Font.Bold = False

0 to 255 is the answer.

@AdamHarrison You should try with UIAutomation. Look in the forum, there are plenty of examples

That could be as the author of that installer is using parts of my developed scripts/programs from the SciTE4Autoit3 package.... so that does makes sense. Assume there will be some credits somewhere that points this out?
