Greetings,
There are two properties- Row and Col which return the Row and Column of the
current cursor position.
However, please don't use these if what you want to do is "when the screen
is here, do X" as there are several pre-build BWS commands for doing this -
here they are and why each one would be used:
To "wait" till the screen is in a particular condition use a Pause command:
Pause "@2,4" - Row 2, Col 4.
Setting the Timeout property after your Connect command - i.e. Timeout=10
will cause an error to be thrown if the Pause condition is not satisfied in
the amount of time(seconds) specified by the Pause command.
Sub Example
On error goto Errh:
Connect ....
Timeout=10
Pause "Bogus Screen @1,1"
...
Exit sub
Errh:
If Err=seTimeOut then
DoStuff
End if
End sub
There are several "One time Check" commands- NOTE these just see if the
screen is where you are looking for - these MUST be used inside a loop since
they do not take into account screen timing.
1.Rule - this is what is generated by Rules based scripting. It is a Boolean
function that allows the detecting for more than one condition delimited by
an & at a time:
do
If Rule("[EMAIL PROTECTED],1&@3,5") then
'Dosomething
End if
...
Stable .2
Loop
2. At -same as Rule but only allows 1 condition:
do
If At("@3,5") then
'Dosomething
End if
...
Stable .2
loop
3. PauseLoop- similar in concept to At, but is used for conditionally keying
data:
do
Pauseloop "@3,5", "MyData~" ' will key in MyData followed by an Enter key
(the ~ is the Enter)
...
Stable .2
Loop
