Greetings, Sure you can just have a cursor location in a Rule. We just default in the Title. You can toggle it off prior to building or edit the condition afterwards. You can also have more than the two conditions - this and this on the screen etc.
Just be sure that it doesn't overlap with another field on a different screen! The duplicate conditions check would not flag: Rule "@20,20" Rule "[EMAIL PROTECTED],20" As duplicates... even though they sort of are. Regards, Thom Thom C.

Of course now I need to modify my PositionIt sub: Public Sub PositionIt(PauseCondition As String) 'This subroutine will take a given pause condition and send the {Enter} 'key until that pause condition is met At "" Do Until At(PauseCondition) Enter "" Wait 0.5 At "" Loop End Sub Although it would be a bit more difficult as I only pass something like "@21,53" or "@18,32", etc. to the sub. Will rules process without a window title? Such as Rule("@21,53")? If so, I think I can make this one just like the other one, using Case Is.

Blackwell Sent: Friday, March 21, 2008 4:19 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Talk] Using AT() with Select Case Greetings, Um... I read an "Is Case" as the same thing as an If? ... Clearing the At - or Rule is a potentially dangerous thing to do and should not be done without a really, really, really good reason to do so - here's why. The At / Rule command has built in logic to not allow you to see the same thing twice in a row. This is a VERY good thing and is not something to override lightly. I've seen countless times where folks put in at"" in a loop, and it caused them all sorts of grief tracking down why something "odd" happened one day. This is an insidious problem to track down because in debug mode it will work perfectly. Keep in mind that a screen may not move as quickly as a script can - so you very well could say: Do if at("Here") then Enter "Y" At"" Loop until at("There") And the loop spin so fast that the screen didn't "take" the Y yet and it still be at here! Protecting against seeing the same thing twice protects you from this - clearing it takes this protection away. All this stuff is why I like the Rules format especially for conditional statements :`) Regards, Thom Thom C.
