Access Violation

[GreenBeing]

Hi,

I am a beginning script writer, and I just can't seem to get around this error..

Code: Select all

Access violation at address 0067EEA0 in module 'msched.exe', Write of address FFFFFFF0.

My script is pretty darn simple.. I load up my target webpage and ensure that it is the only instance of IE running, then I run this script:

Code: Select all

IEGetFromURL>cotthosting.com,IE[0]
IEClickTag>%IE[0]%,{""},{""},{"A"},{"TEXT"},{"Search"},ie_res

EDIT: I did determine with the debugger that it is the 2nd line of script that is triggering the error..

Any ideas?

Thanks.

I was trying to rule out any peculiarities with the site, so I tested it on amazon.com:

Code: Select all

IEGetFromURL>amazon.com,IE[0]
IEClickTag>IE[0],,,INPUT,VALUE,Go,ie_res

This script resulted in the same error as above. Frustrating...

The code works fine for me with amazon.com open in IE. What value for IE[0] are you getting? If it's not finding a match the first line will return -1 and then I would expect an error in the second line. Which version of IE are you running?

Try:

Code: Select all

IEGetFromURL>amazon.com,IE[0]
If>IE[0]>-1
  IEClickTag>IE[0],,,INPUT,VALUE,Go,ie_res
Else
  MessageModal>No matching IE instance
Endif

If you are running Windows 10 make sure you have amazon.com running in IE (Not Edge). IE11 or below. Not Edge. IE11 is included with Windows 10 but if you clicked on the E icon in your task bar you're probably running Edge. Instead click the Windows button and type Internet Explorer to find IE11.

If you were to make the macro open in IE instead it would open in IE11:

Code: Select all

IECreate>IE[0],ie_res
IENavigate>IE[0],www.amazon.com,ie_res
IEWaitDocumentComplete>IE[0],ie_res
IEClickTag>IE[0],,,INPUT,VALUE,Go,ie_res

Thank you for your help, Marcus. I was indeed using Edge, not IE. I am surprised in all of the reading that I did that I did not encounter that caveat. I have not used the Microsoft Browser for years and was unaware that this Edge browser was no longer considered to be "IE".
