Thanks. That's what I figured. Oh well... it's a great function nonetheless!

Is there a way to use _RegSearch() to search for strings inside of binary data? Thanks, aisc

Nice! This looks like it does the trick from command line: MyScript /ErrorStdOut >> log.txt But it won't take that syntax, if I try to make a Windows shortcut like that. I tried to make a batch file with that text instead, but the command window hangs out until the script finishes. My script may run for hours. Any other suggestions to make a shortcut that does this? Thanks, aisc

I'm using the /ErrorStdOut parameter when running my script, so the user doesn't see ugly error messages. But I do want to log them to a file. How might I accomplish this? Thanks, aisc

Good suggestions. I guess there's no way to do it with Ole Automation or whatever. Thanks, aisc

Looking for a way to have a script kick off a macro (that part I've got done via automating excel menus)... but then, the macro takes a long time to run... when it's done, can it pass a message back to the script, so the script can execute some other actions? Really, there's no easy way to tell, from the GUI that it's done. Is there a programmatic (autoit) way? Thanks, aisc

I've played with the basic _IEx functions, but I don't see one to click a div tag. The search terms "div" and "division" don't yield any fruit. L'il help? Thanks, aisc

When you're busting on someone's grammar, you might want to make sure you spell the word "through" correctly. And thanks.

I see the question of whether you can pass an array into _TCP_Send data (2nd parameter) was addressed early on, in this thread. But it looks like things have changed enough that the original discussion no longer applies. Should I be able to do something like this? _TCP_Send($hClient, ProcessList()) And on the other side, in the associate $TCP_RECEIVE event, deal with the variable (2nd parameter) as an array? $sReceived[0][0] Thanks, aisc

Thanks for the feedback! I had never even heard of distributed vcs before... looks interesting! I guess my initial "objection" is that I don't want my team to get slowed down by learning command line "stuff". We want to start coding . That said, it looks like this might be a possible direction to go: http://www.intland.com/products/cb-mr/overview.html Says it's free (forever) and appears to be a web based GUI for mercurial. Anyone tried it before? Worth checking out? Thanks, aisc

My and some friends want to build a large-ish program with AutoIt. Any teams out there: what do you use for source control? Open source is preferable, based on price alone. Thoughts? Thanks, aisc

The code is a thousand lines, so I'm not sure where it's dying exactly. My question was just whether there was a way to get the run time to spit out a line number, rather than line -1. I do like the FileWrite idea. I have a lot of consolewrites... I could replace those. Thanks! aisc

I have a long running script, which occasionally errors. The compiled mode shows the error as line -1. When I run in debug, I never seem to find the error; even when running it for a long time. Is there any of the compile options that allow the runtime to report the line that the error occured on? I tried the include scriptsource option, but reading the forum, it doesn't appear that is what the option is for. L'il help? Thanks, aisc

Sweet. That looks like what I was trying to do. Wasn't sure what to search for. Thanks.

I would like my autoit script to kick off when I reboot my computer - i.e. when I see the Windows login prompt. Is there a way to have it automatically log into Windows 2000 and then continue? I obviously know my own password, and sure it's not a GREAT idea to have that in my script, but I'm willing to live with that concern. Maybe there's just a simple way to bypass the login completely... but that's probably a little more risk than I want, since I assume it means allowing no password for a user - seems extra susceptible to worms, etc. Thanks, aisc

Bump?

Is there a way to tell the editor how many lines to cache in the console? I have a script that only fails after running for a long time. If I'm in debug mode the whole time, I get a message that Windows is increasing my page file size. I assume it's keeping the console output window in memory or on disk, so I'm afraid my box will crash if I let it run any longer. Is there any way to control how many lines the console will keep? Thanks, Alan

I've been working in I.T. for over ten years, and somehow never ran across AutoIt before. I've been using it for some critical stuff over the past few weeks. It's amazing software, and I just wanted to express my thanks to the developers. That's all.

Sweet! Exactly what I was looking for... thanks!

Newbius of newbs here. Well, I'm a decent programmer, but brand spanking new to AutoIt. Anyhoo... I'm trying to figure out how to iterate through a number of windows where I may or may not know the window title. I assume knowing the window title would make it easier. But basically, I want to hit all the open windows and click known x/y coordinates. I have figured out the clicking coordinates part, but not how to iterate through the windows. Especially if I don't know the window title at design time. L'il help? Thanks, aisc
