[GSingh]

Hi I am new to AutoIT. I am making a script where I can automate clicking of button on dialog.

 

I have tried to use controlclick but no luck. Can someone help please? 

Thanks

Moved to the appropriate forum, as the DEV forum very clearly states:

As to your question, "no luck" doesn't tell us anything. How about helping us help you by posting your code

 

[GSingh]

Run ("setup_REL_SMS_6_3_0.exe")
Sleep(5000)
ControlClick("Screen Management System: Installation Options", "", "[CLASS:BUTTON; TEXT:&Next >; INSTANCE:2]")

See faq 31. Post also information of au3inf or other spy tools. Check functions like winwait instead of sleep. First test the basics on calc or notepad in help file examples so then you can apply same on your window.

I have tried WinWaitActive also instead of sleep but button is not pressed.

[Earthshine]

try that

Local $hSetup = Run ("setup_REL_SMS_6_3_0.exe")

ControlClick ($hSetup, 'Screen Management System: Installation Options', '[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:2]')

Tried ControlClick ('[CLASS:#32770]', 'Screen Management System: Installation Options', '[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:2]')

Application launches as before but "next" button is not pressed.

[Earthshine]

we could try

WinWait($hSetup, 'Screen Management System: Installation Options')

instead of Sleep?

[GSingh]

Local $hSetup = Run ("setup_REL_SMS_6_3_0.exe")
WinWait($hSetup, 'Screen Management System: Installation Options')
ControlClick ($hSetup, 'Screen Management System: Installation Options', '[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:2]')

 

Tried above but same issue

[Earthshine]

I think @Junkew is right, you need to visit FAQ 31

[junkew]

Remove the text property or the instance property. I think you are now stating give me the 2nd button with caption text whereas there is only 1

Add also a consolewrite after run to make sure you reach the sleep command and your script is not blocked due to waiting for run getting finished.

Attached here is the screenshot of the dialog and there are 2 buttons "next" and "cancel".

[GSingh]

Help please..

[junkew]

ControlClick("Screen Management System: Installation Options", "", "[CLASS:BUTTON;; INSTANCE:2]")

or

ControlClick("Screen Management System: Installation Options", "", "[CLASS:BUTTON; TEXT:&Next >

ControlClick("Screen Management System: Installation Options", "", "[CLASS:BUTTON; TEXT:&Next >]")

ControlClick("Screen Management System: Installation Options", "", "[CLASS:BUTTON;; INSTANCE:2]")

]")

@GSingh first off, please wait 24 hours before bumping your post. This may be the most important thing in the world to you, but you need to show some patience.

Secondly, IF you are going to bump your post, the expectation would be that you have gone back and tried the suggestions given, and are reporting either success or failure of those suggestions. junkew suggested you do some reading on FAQ31, did you? Did you try anything after doing so? You have provided zero information outside of a screenshot to show that you are putting forth any effort. This forum is dedicated to helping with scripts, not spoon-feeding it to you.

Lastly, as this application was compiled with NullSoft, have you looked for command line parameters that will allow you to install silently with options? Perhaps if we knew the application, we could provide more assistance.
