I just went on a brief fishing expedition through two disk backups, and no luck. I guess it's been a while since I worked on this. The work I did was entirely graphical, which is to say, my script interacted with the Flash program by using PIL to take image snapshots of the window, and then sifting through the bitmap looking for the status of a "time remaining" thermometer-style gauge in the game. Then the script could click on X-Y coordinates within the window, which would get picked up by the Flash game, and the script would monitor the "time remaining" gauge some more, and so on. I'm not sure how well pywinauto would work in allowing you to access controls such as textboxes within a form. I remember that I had to access the IE window using a caption name, and then found the embedded Flash program as an embedded control of some sort, again, I probably needed to indicate that it was some sort of "Adobe.FlashWidget1" object or something. I may have another, older disk backup at home, I can look for it later this evening. -- Paul -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
