send problem on slow computer

[langthang084]

my script like this: 

send(......)
send(............................)
send(.........)
 

But my CPU is Intel Celeron 2Ghz, DDR RAM 512Mb, so when i use some send a long character string, it runs incorrectly

So, is there anyway to use sleep(time) to make script stop until the send complete, then run the next send code (i dont want use time is number to avoid waste time)

it runs incorrectly

Be more clear.

Don't use sends then.  Use controlsettext.

i want to use with "Find and Replace" in Word. 

send("aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa")
    sleep(1000)
    send("{tab}")
    sleep(300)
    send("bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb")
    sleep(1000)
    send("!a")
    sleep(300)

then the result is "aaaaaaaaaaaaabbbb" and i dont know how to use ControlSetText with "find and replace" :|

Using ControlSetText will prove to be much more reliable than using Send. The AutoIt Window Info Tool can be used to obtain the Control ID and other information that you will need to use that function.

This may or may not work on your version.

I'm unable to get the buttons.  Probably need UI automation for that, but most is done:

; initate the find-replace window...then execute this script
$hFindReplace = WinWait("Find and Replace")
WinActivate($hFindReplace)
$hFind = ControlGetHandle($hFindReplace,"",1024)
$hReplace = ControlGetHandle($hFindReplace,"",1026)

ControlSetText($hFindReplace, "", $hFind, "searchstring")
ControlSetText($hFindReplace, "", $hReplace, "replacestring")

ControlSend($hFindReplace, "", "","!a")

WinWaitClose($hFindReplace)

ConsoleWrite("done" & @CRLF)

i think you was looking for this

Opt('SendAttachMode', 1)            ; 0 = Don't attach, 1 = Attach.
Opt('SendCapslockMode', 0)      ; 1 = Store and restore, 0 = Don't store/restore.
Opt('SendKeyDelay', 5)          ; ? = 5 milliseconds.
Opt('SendKeyDownDelay', 1)      ; ? = 1 millisecond.

if you are still not satisfied then make a udf like this

Func _Send($character,$sleep)
Send($character)
Sleep($sleep)
EndFunc

and send your string character by character using a loop

Seems like putting makeup on a pig (just an opinion)
