MuffinMan Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) I am trying to rebuild an old single signon script that has been giving us a bit of trouble lately. I didn't write it and it was written in another script language. If the target program is already open it will have the current user's last name as part of the window text, which I am trying to compare against the user name to see if I should just WinActivate or Process Close and start the program over. I will be provided the username like "jones", or "smith" and the title check works fine for last names (with no spaces), but if the last name DOES contains spaces, say "Nom De Plume", then all I will be given as a username is "nomdeplume". Is there any way (via a regex maybe) that I can still check the text on the screen and somehow ? I have been reading about the Advanced (4) mode of WinTitleMatchMode, but it is over my head. Any help is appreciated. Here is a small reproducer script: Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", -1) Run("Notepad") WinWait("[CLASS:Notepad]", "", 10) Send ("Smith" & @CRLF & "Jones" & @CRLF & "Nom De Plume" & @CRLF) If WinExists("[CLASS:Notepad]", "jones") Then MsgBox(0,"FOUND","Found Jones") EndIf If WinExists("[CLASS:Notepad]", "nomdeplume") Then MsgBox(0,"FOUND","Found Nom De Plume") EndIf Edited November 9, 2016 by MuffinMan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuffinMan Posted November 9, 2016 Author Share Posted November 9, 2016 Well, I have something now that certainly seems to work, I'll start testing and see how this holds up; still interested if anyone has any better solutions. Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", -1) Run("Notepad") WinWait("[CLASS:Notepad]", "", 10) Send ("Smith" & @CRLF & "Jones" & @CRLF & "Nom De Plume" & @CRLF) $WinText = StringStripWS(WinGetText("[CLASS:Notepad]"),8) If StringInStr($WinText, "jones") <> 0 Then MsgBox(0,"FOUND","Found jones") EndIf If StringInStr($WinText, "nomdeplume") <> 0 Then MsgBox(0,"FOUND","Found Nom De Plume") EndIf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
