Moderators SmOke_N Posted October 13, 2006 Moderators Posted October 13, 2006 Well the way you have it, it never checks the ControlGetFocus() if it wasn't true to begin with. Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.
litlmike Posted October 13, 2006 Author Posted October 13, 2006 Well the way you have it, it never checks the ControlGetFocus() if it wasn't true to begin with.Sorry for being misleading, I should have posted more of the code originally. Unless I am misunderstanding you, I think that it already was doing that.However, shouldn't it still evaluate the If Not either way? As long as the ControlGetFocus ($ControlFocus) is not equal to $ButtonX, it still should evaluate the statement, right? _ArrayPermute()_ArrayUnique()Excel.au3 UDF
ChiDragon Posted October 13, 2006 Posted October 13, 2006 I don't really understand what you're trying to do, but what about "If $ControlFocus <> $ButtonX"?
litlmike Posted October 14, 2006 Author Posted October 14, 2006 I always do... If Not ($ControlFocus = $ButtonX) ThenThanks, I made the change and I will start use this as standard practice. Sadly, this did not resolve the issue for me. Any ideas why the 'If Not' will not run? The loop engages, but not the 'If Not'. *NOTE* this is an error checking script. So it check for the error, and if it doesn't work, it loops until sucess. _ArrayPermute()_ArrayUnique()Excel.au3 UDF

So then should it be this: Func ErrorCheck_Check_Activity () $ControlFocusReturn = ControlFocus ("Clear Activity", "", $ButtonX) $ControlFocus = ControlGetFocus ("Clear Activity") While $ControlFocusReturn <> 1 ElseIf Not $ControlFocus = $ButtonX Then $ControlFocusReturn = ControlFocus ("Clear Activity", "", $ButtonX) $ControlFocus = ControlGetFocus ("Clear Activity") EndIf WEnd ControlCommand ("Clear Activity", "", $ButtonX , "Check", "") EndFunc Edited October 14, 2006 by litlmike _ArrayPermute()_ArrayUnique()Excel.au3 UDF

There's no condition to ever change the $y or the $x, just like in yours, you never ever check $ControlFocus so why should it keep going in there? Was it ($controlfocus) true before the loop or false? etc.... My suggestion would be to post a replica of your situation rather than us guessing to appease you. You would have had your answer the very first post more than likely, and been several hours on your way. Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt...

Cue Posted October 14, 2006 Posted October 14, 2006 My apologies if ive not understood what you intend to do but I dont see the point of this code. the code below should in theory do the same thing. It simply checks if it set buttonx as the focused control and tries again if it didnt. is that what your looking for? Func ErrorCheck_Check_Activity () Do $ControlFocusReturn = ControlFocus ("Clear Activity", "", $ButtonX) Until $ControlFocusReturn=1 ControlCommand ("Clear Activity", "", $ButtonX , "Check", "") EndFunc
