Title: Meditech C/S drop down menu lost focus with Timeout

Try something like to reset the Timeout:       Enter ""     Timeout = 10     Pause "Print Queued [EMAIL PROTECTED],1"         Timeout = 0     Pause "@3,8" '*** Report Type prompt   Rich McNeil Boston Software Systems 866 653 5105 www.bostonworkstation.com From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Barker-Lacerda , Michelle Sent: Wednesday, August 04, 2004 3:28 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] COM ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Subject: [Talk] Meditech C/S drop down menu lost focus with Timeout   I have a script that I run daily at a locked XP workstation. It runs okay, but once in awhile it times out at the target screen (Print Queued Reports) because the drop down menu to get into it, loses its focus before the script can get there. Maybe twice or three times a month. I wanted to set up a timeout error to reset the script when this happens. The problem I'm having now is that the On Error GoTo & Timeout statements cause it to timeout ALL the time now (at least it's consistent now). I've tried to Activate the window before selecting the drop down menu, and that works if the workstation isn't locked, but not while it's locked. Any suggestions? The workstation isn't in a secured area, so it can't really run unlocked.  On Error GoTo TimeoutErr   ... more steps ...             Pause "MEDITECH Imaging & Therapeutic Services [EMAIL PROTECTED],1"     Key "{DOWN}{DOWN}{DOWN}{DOWN}{DOWN}"     Wait     Activate "MEDITECH" '*** Bring Meditech window to focus     Enter ""  '*** Enter on drop down menu     Key "{DOWN}{DOWN}{DOWN}{DOWN}{DOWN}{DOWN}{DOWN}"     Enter ""     Timeout = 10     Pause "Print Queued [EMAIL PROTECTED],1"     Pause "@3,8" '*** Report Type prompt  ... more steps ...  TimeoutErr:  ... more steps ...   Thanks Michelle 617-665-3432 617-546-7770 pgr.
