Loop How many times?

[vincepr0]

Please don't say read the help files and be nice. I am super new to doing this kind of stuff... I have tried and cannot find something that prompts a box that says: How many times do you want to loop? (then you type in a number like 12) and it loops 12 times.

 

Here is my script below. I want to start this script, input the number of times I want to loop, and then start. Then it stops after it goes through that number of times.

 

MouseClick("left",942,409,1)
sleep(500)
MouseClick("left",942,409,1)
sleep(500)
Send("{CTRLDOWN}{HOME}{CTRLUP}")
sleep(500)
Send("{CTRLDOWN}c{CTRLUP}")
MouseClick("left",567,-833,1)
sleep(500)
Send("{CTRLDOWN}v{CTRLUP}")
sleep(100)
Send("{ENTER}")
sleep(100)
Send("{TAB}")

When I see this kind of laziness I reach for the ignore button. RTFM

Earthshine,

Despite the OP's rather insulting classification of forum members as "nerds" we should still remain polite. Please refrain from adding posts such as the one above which says more about you than the OP.

Hi.

 

Welcome to the forum.

If you want to do a loop 12 times, then use a "for" loop. With an option to specify first, how many loops shall be done, this would come out to some code like this:

 

$LoopCount=InputBox("How many loops shall be done?","Enter number",12)


for $i = 1 to $LoopCount
    MsgBox(0,"Loop counter","This is loop #" & $i)
    ; your code goes here.
Next

regards, Rudi.

 

PS: I don't take "nerd" as an insult ;-)

have fun!
