I have been trying to automate a button click using an auto IT script in an application.



The window title of the application is EDI867 Tracer and the button I am trying to click is Browse.



The control info that I got from Autoit Window Info is as below



>>>> Window <<<<

>>>> Hidden Text <<<<

I am trying to control click this button. I tried all the possible controlclick syntax that I know using the above window info but nothing seems to automate the button click.



I am open for suggestions to find a solution.

          Also get the handle of the control by using AutoIT window info.
          The button class should be something like CLASS:WindowsForms10.BUTTON.app.0.378734a and its instance should be also given (say 5). Then script looks like:



          Local $hSecWnd=WinGetHandle("[CLASS:WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.378734a; W:1366; H:728]")
          ControlClick($hSecWnd,"","[CLASS:WindowsForms10.BUTTON.app.0.378734a; INSTANCE:5]")
