Using the Open Windows tool I can search for a specific piece of text inside a window. Is it possible to replicate that inside a MS script? Let's say I want to see if that bit of text is anywhere on the screen. How would I search through all open windows to find it? I'd like to find "This loan is lo...

I think I can answer my question here: Yes, they do work! It failed until I got the name right. Oops!

Are UNC paths names supported by MS 14.3, specifically the logging functions (Timestamp, etc)? I need to log to a network drive and I prefer to use UNC pathnames since mapping is often an iffy proposition.

One case where it doesn't work as I expected: If you highlight a bunch of lines and then block indent, it only indents them 2 spaces. If you do the same and hit the tab key it also only indents them 2 spaces. You have to indent them again to match the normal indent. Another case is when you start a ...

Very clever! Thanks a lot.

I'm curious. Another program I was looking at had the option to show an outline of the image being matched. Does MS have that ability? Actually, if it could highlight an area given coordinates, that would be even better. Very helpful in trying to target an area to read text from.

After I figured this out, and replicated to make sure I was right, I had a really bad thing happen. Not only did one of my files get corrupted, but I couldn't connect to the database and the Year> function (all the date functions) started returning garbled characters. I stopped MS and reloaded every...

Yeah, this happens to me too. Makes me slightly batty.

Okay, some combination of **BREAKPOINT**, hitting F8/F9 and hitting another breakpoint. I'll try to pin it down exactly. But I'm able to switch back and forth between tabs during debugging. It is pretty disastrous to do and usually only happens when I forget I'm in debugging mode. Okay, here's how i...

Was able to produce the issue by doing this: Started debugging and then switched to another tab, tried to edit the file because I forgot I was debugging. It wouldn't let me update the tab (include file). Hit the red-x to stop the debugger. Main file overwrote contents of the tab. Exited without savi...

Awesome. Thanks!

Great suggestion! Thanks.

Yeah, I've got 100's of lines of code and a ton of variables already. Perhaps in my next project I'll do your proposed work-around. I'm surprised you find merit in creating variable from what should be numeric constants. What happens when you go to check, like I did, whether or not FindImage found a...

Thanks for the info about the variable, I'm not sure I can really use it at this point. I'd argue long and hard, over a glass of adult beverage, that being allowed to redefine what should be numeric constants, is useful though. There's a reason virtually every language has limits on variable naming....

I can't tell you how timely this topic is. Thanks, I need this info.
