That worked! So I revised the script to send my actual password follow by {enter} and it worked like a charm.

Boiler, I can't thank you enough for staying with me on this.

OK, it gets interesting! When I tried 123456, nothing different happened, Then I decided to restore your MsgBox, and ran it again. This time I got 6 characters in the password field, presumably "123456". I thought I might have made a mistake so I ran the scripts again, both with and without the MsgB...

After this partial success, I removed the message and added

Code: Select all

send, {down}{down}{enter}{enter}

before the Return statement.

I still only get the blinking cursor. btw

Code: Select all

send, {down}{down}{enter}{enter}

still works if I do it manually.

I ran your latest script with nothing else included. This time, eTrade opened in a reduced window and I did get the message. after I hit OK I got the blinking cursor in the password field.

twhanson1

The only windows open were Google (ETrade app), notepad, and my Desktop. One by one I minimized each, and there was no hidden MsgBox. Here's what I got when I double-clicked the AutoHotKey script icon: Script lines most recently executed (oldest first). Press [F5] to refresh. The seconds elapsed bet...

Correction: hotkey Alt e not Alt m

twhanson1

I ran it with the hotkey Alt m. Before our forum session began I ran it without the hotkey as well. The result was always the same i.e. Google would open, the eTrade app would display with a blinking cursor in the password field. I don't know why I don't get the message; it's as if the MsgBox statem...

I ran your script as administrator by right-clicking the script file and selecting, 'run as administrator', but I did not get the message box.

twhanson1

Yes, when I execute my script, that's when I get the 'welcome back' URL. And the password field has a blinking cursor as usual.

Boiler, I tried your last script as administrator, and the window does not minimize. So it appears that the execution doesn't reach that point, or there's some other reason it doesn't minimize.

Now this is interesting. This still didn't work but the blinking cursor in the password field is back. !e:: Run, https us.etrade.com /e/t/user/login Broken Link for safety WinWaitActive, % "Investing, Trading and Retirement - E*TRADE Financial" Sleep, 1000 ; wait a little bit extra to let the page f...

Windows Spy says the title is 'Investing, Trading and Retirement - E*TRADE Financial - Google Chrome'. so what do you think is the best way to get around this?

twhanson1

Tried the extended time and substituted characters (12345) in place of {down}{down}{enter}{enter}. The password field displays only a blinking cursor. Here my last try: !e:: { Run, https us.etrade.com /e/t/user/login Broken Link for safety WinWaitActive, Log On to E*TRADE | E*TRADE Financial Sleep, ...

The {down}{down}{enter}{enter} keystrokes are specific to my login page. Google selects my account out of two possible accounts on the first {down}. The 2nd down enters the password associated with that account. {enter}{enter} takes me down to the logon button and and enters my login ID and password.

twhanson1

Ran as administrator; same result.

twhanson1

I copied all 4 lines, saved and ran the script, the Hit !e. Unfortunately the results were the same. I'm left with a blinking cursor in the login field. Then I manually entered {down}{down}{enter}{enter}, to successfully login.

twhanson1

I composed the following code: !e::Run, https us.etrade.com /e/t/user/login Broken Link for safety send {down}{down}{enter}{enter} When I key in !e, the first line runs perfectly but the 2nd line does nothing. If I manually enter the 2nd line (i.e. from my keyboard), I get successfully logged into m...

It worked. I only now realize that I have to run the script file every time I edit. Thanks very very much iPhilip.
