MouseOver Example Not working

Post by GregS » Tue Jun 06, 2006 10:51 pm

OK, just download Macro Scheduler and tried the MouseOver example in the help section. It does everything execpt the MouseOver & Lclick, any ideas?

Example Code:

Run Program>rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL TimeDate.cpl

WaitWindowOpen>Date/Time Properties

...

MouseOver>Date/Time*,OK

LClick



Cheers,

The problem is that the name of the date and time window has changed in later versions of Windows operating systems. If you had Win98 this would have worked for you

Try this instead of what you found in help. I also added a couple of waits so you can more clearly see what is happening.

Code: Select all

Run Program>rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL TimeDate.cpl
WaitWindowOpen>Date and Time Properties
Wait>2
MouseOver>Date and Time*,OK
Wait>2
LClick
Hope this helps,
Dick

I have updated the help file for the next release, to reflect this change.

Did you know we are now offering affordable monthly subscriptions for Macro Scheduler Standard?
