Reading the contents of a list within a window
Posted: Fri Jul 10, 2009 11:43 pm
Hi,
I'm trying to automate a business process. I would like to know if Phantom can do what I need.
1. I want to create a form that pops up and the user fills the required fields from a paper
document. Then I want to use the fields from this form to automate a **** process
of filling data within an application. First I need to be able to read the contents from within
a window that returns data from a database request. When that data is auto-select by the
macro another row of data will appear beneath it(this is the data I need to be able to read
because it contains the name I need to match and select from a drop down list).
2. Assuming that step 1 above can be done with ANY windows automation tool available, then I need
to be able to read the member names from a 22-member drop-down list and choose the member
that matches the data read in step 1.
Can this be done with the Phantom language or any other method of writing scripts/macros for
automation?
Thank you,
Rob
