Incrementing variable names? Topic is solved
I'm trying to find the simplest way to change which variable is being used based on input. I use variables to paste blocks of text including line breaks and I need to change which one is swapped out. I'd like to use a CountVar to find TextTemplateN and call the correct variable based on the number o...

Parsing a string
Is there any way to take a string and find a variable, then parse something immediately after that variable? I have pieces of information that will always appear in the string i.e. "DOB" followed by a line break and the data I need to parse. This is always in a different location so I need to find t...

Re: Keep right click from doing anything Topic is solved
Great, when you say bottom of my script does that matter whether it's inside the hotkey or loop or can it be anywhere in the ahk file? Never used context sensitive hotkeys before Put the following lines at the bottom of your script: #If InLoop RButton:: return #If At the start of the loop, add this:...

Keep right click from doing anything Topic is solved
I have a script that runs on loop with macros controlled by my mouse, and mouse movement is off while looping. I run into a constant problem where I'm accidentally right clicking because the way my hand rests, and it screws up the script. Is there a way that I can prevent right click from being sent...

Re: Associative Array with variable as key - beginner question Topic is solved
Great thank you, the quotes make it more readable in Notepad++ anyway.

Associative Array with variable as key - beginner question Topic is solved
I'm new to associative arrays/objects, I'm trying to use a variable to lookup the key in the array. I'm expecting the MsgBox to return either Y or N (or a number in the future) based on the user input of a two letter state abbreviation. This is returning blank right now: StatesArray := {AL: N, AR: N...

Re: Go to next empty row (Excel/Sheets)
Great I'll check the forums for the invalid class string when using the excel handle. I'm on the latest AHK and Windows 10 The script should run "as is" and the hotkey should be triggered while Excel is open and the active cell is in that column. Search on the forum for "invalid class string". There...

Re: Go to next empty row (Excel/Sheets)
I'm going to take the time shortly to learn how the excel objects work - unfamiliar with the syntax now. Do I need to edit any of this for it to work? It gave me an error for invalid class string at the Xl := ComObjActive("Excel.Application") line Excel only. You can try something like this (win + b...

Go to next empty row (Excel/Sheets)
Hi, I'm using this code right now to go to the next empty cell in the column then go home to the first cell and fill out a new row. This is in an xlsx file in Google Sheets but if you have an Excel based solution I'll switch. It just takes too long at a second per 10 rows if I'm dealing with thousan...

Re: Totally stuck... Clipboard and Variable problem Topic is solved
Great! I used your approach of keeping the clipboard clear and storing everything in variables, used Send %Variable% instead of pasting ^v, and used: While !Clipboard { ClipWait, 2 Send ^c } to ensure the clipboard fills before moving on. I have an emergency exitapp. Clipboard := Click %NameX%, %Nam...

Macro to disable mouse movement? Topic is solved
Hi, I know this is probably not an AHK question but in the off chance there's an AHK solution or anyone else has had the same issue, I need to somehow turn off the movement of my external mouse with a hotkey. My hotkeys are bound to this mouse but while the script is running, any mouse movement will...

I don't know if anyone will find this particularly useful but it's a combination of a lot of pieces I've found here an...
