Found Mouseclick function. Is there a better way to open and run AB 5.296 with AutoIt rather than the following example? Plus, does anyone know a way to get WinWaitActive to work on the left 9 characters of "AmiBroker - [RUT-I - Russell 2000 Composite Index Daily]" which is "AmiBroker" as I am thinking that this would be better than sleep of 20 seconds.
; Run (open) AmiBroker
Run("C:\AmiBroker\broker.exe")
; Wait for AmiBroker to become active - it has "AmiBroker" in upper left window
;WinWaitActive("AmiBroker")
;WinWaitActive("AmiBroker - [RUT-I - Russell 2000 Composite Index Daily]")
; Sleep for 20 seconds to let be sure open
Sleep(20000)
$x = 500 ; x position
$y = 500 ; y position
MouseClick("left",$x,$y)
Sleep(2000)
; Change to TC2000 database - File menu -> Open, T, Enter
Send("!f")
Sleep(2000)
Send("D")
Sleep(2000)
Send("T")
Sleep(2000)
Send("{ENTER}")
Sleep(20000)
; Save AmiBroker
Send("!f") ; ALT f
Sleep(3000)
Send("S") ; S for Save
; Exit AmiBroker
Sleep(2000)
Send("!f") ; ALT f
Sleep(2000)
Send("X") ; X for Exit
; Done
