Drop down selection not working properly

[amb2301]

Hi Experts, 

i am new to Autoit, i need a help on following scripts,

i used the below script to select the option "NETWORK" from the drop down, but its selecting "RECORDS CORRECTION" as shown in below pic,

please suggest me to correct the errors if any...

ControlCommand("Job Creation", "", "[CLASS:SNET$combobox;INSTANCE:1]", "ShowDropDown")
Sleep(1000)
ControlSend("Job Creation", "", "[CLASS:SNET$combobox;INSTANCE:1]", "NETWORK")
sleep(1000)
ControlCommand("Job Creation", "", "[CLASS:SNET$combobox;INSTANCE:2]", "ShowDropDown")
sleep(1000)
ControlCommand("Job Creation", "", "[CLASS:SNET$combobox;INSTANCE:2]", "900-N/A")

Just idea:

It probably reacts only on first letter in opened list, so last existing first letter from chars N E T W O R K is R --> Records ...

Hi Zedna,

      Thanks for your quick reply, 

 Yes, you are right, i tried 

 

ControlSend("Job Creation", "", "[CLASS:SNET$combobox;INSTANCE:1]", "N")

its working fine now, its selecting "NETWORK" now...

but in further filter combos, i have more than 50 dropdowns list, from that list,how can i select particular dropdown....any idea?

Have you tried this?

ControlCommand("Job Creation", "", "[CLASS:SNET$combobox;INSTANCE:1]", "SelectString", "NETWORK")

When ControlCommand/ShowDropDown works fine maybe ControlCommand/SelectString will be working too ...

[amb2301]

I tried this code, but its selecting NETWORK..

ControlCommand("Job Creation", "", "[CLASS:SNET$combobox;INSTANCE:1]", "SelectString", "INORDER")

I think select string is not working properly

now again the same problem, i just tried this code,it opens dropdown but remains in NETWORK...

Dont know, where i made mistake

ControlCommand("Job Creation", "", "[CLASS:SNET$combobox;INSTANCE:1]", "ShowDropDown")
Sleep(1000)
ControlCommand("Job Creation", "", "[CLASS:SNET$combobox;INSTANCE:1]","R")
sleep(1000)
ControlCommand("Job Creation", "", "[CLASS:SNET$combobox;INSTANCE:2]", "ShowDropDown")
sleep(1000)
ControlCommand("Job Creation", "", "[CLASS:SNET$combobox;INSTANCE:2]", "510")

Try if _GUICtrlComboBox_GetList() works with your "nonstandard ClassName" control.

If answer is YES then you can get all entries from list and you can try to use send desired precise number of "arrow down" keys in opened list.

 

Also look at all functions in ...\Include\GuiComboBox.au3 ...

You've left out the "SelectString" parameter, and I'm not sure this command was designed to work like this.

You could also try something like this --

$hCombo = ControlGetHandle("Job Creation", "", "[CLASS:SNET$combobox;INSTANCE:1]")
_GUICtrlComboBox_SelectString($hCombo, "Network")
