I am working on a program that pulls data from AD via a linked table in SQL and lets the user copy an email address to the clipboard. I am using an array to dynamically display a button beside each row. The problem is that, when I try and put labels or buttons inside the for loop, they don't show up. Is it just that I'm doing it wrong. My code is as follows:
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <mssql.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
#include <Array.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
global $title = "E-Mail address lookup"
global $sqlCon = _MSSQL_Con("server", "user", "Directory3=", "password")
global $name = InputBox($title,"Please type the name of the person you wish to find")
global $result = _MSSQL_GetRecord($sqlCon, "autoit_view","*", "WHERE cn LIKE '%" & StringStripWS($name,3) & "%'")
if StringLen(StringStripWS($name,3)) < 1 then
MsgBox(0, $title, "Name cannot be empty")
Else
Global $ControlID = GUICreate($title, 530, 500)
GUISetState(#SW_SHOW)
Local $iOldOpt = Opt("GUICoordMode", 2)
GUICtrlCreateLabel(" ", 0, 0, 80)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("E-Mail Address", 20, -1, 100)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Name", 20, -1, 50)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Department", 20, -1, 100)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Telephone Number", 20, -1, 200)
for $i = 1 To UBound($result) Step 1
GUICtrlCreateButton("Copy", 0, $i, 30, 20)
Next
GUISetState()
While 1
Global $Msg = GUIGetMsg()
Switch $Msg
Case -3, $ControlID
Exit
EndSwitch
WEnd
EndIf
I would have expected one button to show up on a new line on every iteration of the loop
I recommend to use another mode:
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
;~ #include <mssql.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
#include <Array.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
Global $title = "E-Mail address lookup"
;~ global $sqlCon = _MSSQL_Con("server", "user", "Directory3=", "password")
;~ global $name = InputBox($title,"Please type the name of the person you wish to find")
;~ global $result = _MSSQL_GetRecord($sqlCon, "autoit_view","*", "WHERE cn LIKE '%" & StringStripWS($name,3) & "%'")
Global $result = StringSplit('1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8', ',')
;~ if StringLen(StringStripWS($name,3)) < 1 then
;~ MsgBox(0, $title, "Name cannot be empty")
;~ Else
;~ _ArrayDisplay($result)
Global $ControlID = GUICreate($title, 530, 500)
;~ Local $iOldOpt = Opt("GUICoordMode", 2)
GUICtrlCreateLabel(" ", 0, 0, 80)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("E-Mail Address", 20, -1, 100)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Name", 20, -1, 50)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Department", 20, -1, 100)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Telephone Number", 20, -1, 200)
For $i = 1 To UBound($result) - 1
GUICtrlCreateButton("Copy", 20, $i * 20, 350, 20)
Next
GUISetState()
While 1
$Msg = GUIGetMsg()
Switch $Msg
Case -3, $ControlID
Exit
EndSwitch

I want to send Windows + R to my GUICtrl using AutoIt. When I do Send("#r") it works on my computer but not in remote desktop. I want to do it in the RDP session.
Code :
$host = "" ;<<<<<<< enter here the host name or ip address
$hGUI = GUICreate("Terminal server", 900, 700, -1, -1, $WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW + $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS + $WS_CLIPCHILDREN)
$oRDP = ObjCreate("MsTscAx.MsTscAx.2")
$oRDP_Ctrl = GUICtrlCreateObj($oRDP, 0, 0, 900, 700)
GUICtrlSetResizing(-1, $GUI_DOCKALL)
GUICtrlSetStyle($oRDP_Ctrl, $WS_VISIBLE)
$oRDP.DesktopWidth = 900
$oRDP.DesktopHeight = 700
$oRDP.Fullscreen = False
$oRDP.ColorDepth = 16
$oRDP.AdvancedSettings3.SmartSizing = True
$oRDP.Server = $host
$oRDP.UserName = "" ;<<<<<<< enter here the user name
$oRDP.Domain = ""
$oRDP.AdvancedSettings2.ClearTextPassword = ""
$oRDP.ConnectingText = "Connecting to " & $host
$oRDP.DisconnectedText = "Disconnected from " & $host
$oRDP.StartConnected = True
$oRDP.Connect()
GUISetState(#SW_SHOW, $hGUI)
$oShel = ObjCreate("shell.application")
$oShel_Ctrl = GUICtrlCreateObj($oShel, 0, 0, 900, 700)
GUICtrlSetStyle($oShel_Ctrl, $WS_VISIBLE)
While 1
$nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
Switch $nMsg
Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
$oRDP.Disconnect()
Exit
EndSwitch
You will want to use the special shortcut key for use when connected via RDP. You can find a list here: Remove Desktop Services Shortcut Keys
Try sending ALT+HOME:
Send("{ALT}{HOME}")
I found the solution. I use PsExec.exe, it's easier !
PS : Don't forget the session's ID after options. Without it, PsExec will works but only in processes and will not make a window
I was trying to create an AutoIt script to create a new folder and then highlight it for renaming like if we right click and create a new folder.
Here is my script. What I wanted to achieve is create the new folder, highlight it, then press F2.

This works for me in Win7 - should work in xp as long as address bar is turned on. MUCH simpler than using the DLL calls. I left you a little bit of work to do :)

$SPLIT = StringSplit($TEXT,#CR & #LF & #CRLF) ;split on new lines (idk which one of the three it uses)
IF IsArray($SPLIT) Then
; trigger = true
FOR $I = 1 to $SPLIT[0]
IF StringInStr($SPLIT[$i],"Address: ") Then
; trigger = false
$STRING = StringReplace($SPLIT[$i],"Address: ","")

"create a new folder and then highlight it for renaming like its supposed to"
As per Documentation - Function Reference - DirCreate() :
Creates a directory/folder.
Example:
Global Const $g_sPathFolder = #DesktopDir & '\'
Global Const $g_sPromptText = 'Enter folder name :'
Global Const $g_sPromptExmp = 'NewFolder'
Global $g_sNameFolder = InputBox(#ScriptName, $g_sPromptText, $g_sPromptExmp)
DirCreate($g_sPathFolder & $g_sNameFolder)
ShellExecute($g_sPathFolder & $g_sNameFolder)
I have made a button in AutoIT for this program we are making for work we will call it $okmystery and I want $okmystery to like to my company website. Here is a snippet of the code I have so far:
Dim $msg
GUISetState()
While 1
$msg = GUIGetMsg()
Select
Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
ExitLoop
Case $msg = $okbutton
; Minimize Current Window
WinSetState( $WINTITLE, "", #SW_MINIMIZE)
While Not BitAND(WinGetState($WINTITLE, ""), 16)
sleep( 250 )
WEnd
; Take Screen Shots and Logs
ScreenShotAndLogs()
; Compress Artifacts
If FileExists( $ZIPFILEPATH ) Then FileDelete( $ZIPFILEPATH )
_Zip_Create( $ZIPFILEPATH )
_Zip_AddFolderContents( $ZIPFILEPATH, $OUTPUTROOT )
DeleteOriginals()
; Restore main window
WinSetState( $WINTITLE, "", #SW_RESTORE)
;------------ Screen Shot
Case $msg = $okshot
; Minimize Current Window
WinSetState( $WINTITLE, "", #SW_MINIMIZE)
While Not BitAND(WinGetState($WINTITLE, ""), 16)
sleep( 250 )
WEnd
ScreenShot()
; Restore main window
WinSetState( $WINTITLE, "", #SW_RESTORE)
;----------------------------------
$okmystery = ShellExecute ("basic")
Run("Http://www.IT-Networks.org")
Case Default
; Do Nothing
EndSelect
WEnd
Exit( 0 )
It looks like you need to change the "$okmystery" case statement to match the other case statements (if those are all working like they're supposed to).
You can then try to ShellExecute() the url.
Case $msg = $okmystery
ShellExecute("Http://www.IT-Networks.org")
Here's a working example of a GUI with a button that opens your company website in your default web browser:
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
Global $Button_1, $msg
GUICreate("Test GUI Button")
$okmystery = GUICtrlCreateButton("okmystery Button", 10, 30, 100)
GUISetState()
While 1
$msg = GUIGetMsg()
Select
Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
ExitLoop
Case $msg = $okmystery
ShellExecute("Http://www.IT-Networks.org")
EndSelect

I use rsync to synchronize files to Windows clients in a server agnostic way. What methods are available to send the progress of rsync to the parent process for display in a gui progress bar?
I imagine two or three choices exist. (1) Watch STDOUT (2) Watch rsync.exe log file, similar to unix tail (3) Watch rsync console output in memory.
Which one is best/preferred?
For this type of tasks, I use my own AutoIt script (freeware, Windows only). The script redirects the standard output into a graphical window, displaying it with the ability to scroll back, etc (very useful in long processes like XCOPYs / PKZIPs to check if any error did happen).
I use AutoIt because it's free, very easy to use, and can compile quickly into an .EXE. I think it's an excellent alternative to a complete programming language for this type of tasks. The downside is that it's for Windows only.

.NET has a pretty straight forward way to read and watch STDOUT.
I guess this would be the cleanest way, since it is not dependent on any external files, just the path to rsync. I would not be too surprised if there is a wrapper library out there either. If not, write and open source it :)
I've built my own simple object for this, I get a lot of reuse out of it, I can wrap it with a cmdline, web page, webservice, write output to a file, etc---
The commented items contain some rsync examples--
what I'd like to do sometime is embed rsync (and cygwin) into a resource & make a single .net executable out of it--
Here you go:
Imports System.IO

Public _arg As String
