#AutoIt3Wrapper_usex64=n means that the script will be run/compiled for X86 (32 bit). X64 is 64 bit.

No. AutoIt IS a scripting language. AutoIt itself is written in C++ (IIRC)

[guinness]

Did you mean is the AutoIt syntax like Perl?

Lets not beat around the bush here, please rephrase your question (if you have one) or is your question in the title? And I think you first need to understand how to ask questions properly in the AutoIt or at all.

#AutoIt3Wrapper_usex64=Y - Use the 64-bit version of AutoIt if using a 64-bit OS.

#AutoIt3Wrapper_usex64=N - Use the 32-bit version of AutoIt regardless of using a 64-bit OS.

Auto it is written in C++ , that is fine.. but my question is that , code which we write on the Autoit is what ? does it belog to perl or any other language ?

I am new to this AutoIT tool. I want to open the excel file and make some operations using AutoIT. Now my question is which scripting language should I write in AutoIT to open the execel file or note pad. ? (Yea .. kind of AutoIT syntax)

It is a Basic-like scripting language. Check this.

To work with AutoIt and Excel you should use the Excel UDF (User Defined Functions).

Open the help file -> User Defined Functions Reference -> Excel Management

This is what I am expecting... Yea.. got it. Thanks a ton !!

Does AutoIT have debugging feature ? . I want to see step by setp by execution. Can I see do that using AutoIT

[water]

• Use the forum search feature. You would have found a lot of topics
• Set "#AutoIt3Wrapper_Run_Debug_Mode=Y" at the top of your script
• Check the Autoit

vbhimal,

There is a graphical debugger script somewhere in the Examples section but I have never used it. Most of us use a combination of MsgBox and ConsoleWrite to debug our code. You can also use Opt("TrayIconDebug", 1) which gives the currently active line in a tooltip fron the tray icon - very handy if the script appears to hang. If you have the full SciTE4AutoIt3 editor package (download it from here) you can use the #AutoIt3Wrapper_Run_Debug_Mode directive and get all the code lines written to the SciTE console - you can turn it on/off so that only certain parts are debugged.

I hope that helps.
