I can easily follow what Hugov wrote but I'm not even going to pretend to understand the advanced code you provided! :-) Looking at Hugov's code I just need to read the line and look for the key word then read X characters after into a variable.. then when I hit a blank line, write all the variables...

Hello everyone, I’m in desperate need of help. I have two MS Word documents from an AT&T GoPhone call history that I need to extract the meaningful data from and put into Excel so I can then make a pivot chart (both documents are roughly 700 pages each). I’ve tried several different things but n...

Good day everyone, I was asked to reassociate .TIF files with a different TIF viewer program so I wanted to write a AHK script – assuming this would be the easiest method. I’ve searched and searched on how to reassociate a file type using AHK but I have not found a script yet. I need to write a scri...

You do realize that FileAppend will add the supplied text (or variable) to the end of the file each time. Eg, if you're added "this is a test" to the end of a file (and you loop 1000 times), you'll end up with "this is a testthis is a testthis is a testthis is a test..." etc. Ye...

Hi everyone, I wrote a VERY SIMPLE script the other day to read the mapped drives a user has and write the findings to a file on a server. After a few days my CSV file isn’t what I expected – although if I hand test it on a few PC’s it works great. My question : When I use FileAppend, I assume the f...

Services don't have user interfaces. AutoHotkey is centered around automation of the user interface. Someday, the code may be sufficiently factored out to facilitate running as a service. I understand that - the script I wrote doesn't have a user interface - other than the tray icon. It appears to ...

I am also trying to start a compiled AHK script as a Windows Service and after 30 seconds or so I get the error "error 1053 service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion" How do you fix this? I'm guessing I need to send a call back to the service control manag...

AFAIK "Dameware or Remote Desktop" are used on pc#1 to access pc#2 by 'remote control' is this correct? Yes, that's correct. :) Is your utility on PC#1 or PC#2 ? It's on both (it's on ALL computers) and that's why PC1 is capturing the hotkey and not passing the hotkey on to PC2. That was ...

I wrote a utility that we use on desktops here - and it places an icon in the system tray. If you right-click the Icon it will present an abbreviated menu. If you LShift & LCtrl you get a full menu. The problem occurs however when I (or many others) are using Dameware or Remote Desktop.. the LSH...

Thank you Tank for your help! This works great and I have what I need but how it works still baffles me some. I’ve spent hours trying to understand it… I’m a self proclaimed AHK ‘beginner’. I understand that COM_CoInitialize basically initiates and opens communications to the systems’ full COM to l...

That would be great if you don't mind posting an example. I'm not sure which DLL to even work with on this one.

the active directory info will be based on the log in not the ip address
Ill post a COM example tomorrow if you like

Hello world, I need my AHK script to behave differently based on the Active Directory Site the PC is located in. Where do I start with this task? Please don’t tell me it’s a DLL call! :lol: I thought a a simpler way would be to read the network’s default gateway but if it’s a laptop and has a simult...
