Hi,
I am new to Python and I am using PAMIE to manipulate IE browser. Currently, I have IE window 1 launched, after I clicked on a link on window 1, a second IE window 2 isopened. Then, I want to activate IE window 2 (click button or change url), the focus keeps on IE window 1 and click on the button on window 1. I have used "def windowFind" from the PAMIE and able to find IE window 2. Can someone please tell me how to activate IE window 2 so I can click on the button etc..?
Many thanks,
Mary

I'm guessing here, but it seems to me that if
window2 = windowFind(what everyouputhere)
then it's probably
window2.activat e() # maybe with a capital
If you search thescripts for "cPAMIE", you'll find some interesting discussions.
Posting code always helps, too.
The PAMIE project seems very interesting. It's too bad that the docs are so limited. The best that I could find is

So somebody is still working on it. Hope that helps some.

occur on HPUX or Linux. The following simple example code illustrates

Hi all,
I am new to Python, and I just wrote a simple script to launch an
application from the windows's start menu's run command. (see code as
follow) There is an "OK" button on the new application I launched,
but I can't get Python to click on it because the new window is not in
focus and I read somewhere off the web that I need to activate the new
window first before I can do anything on the new window. I couldn't
find any useful...

Dear all.
I am using an existing hodge-podge of an application that runs on top
of an Access database. This application dials up customer equipment,
handshakes then downloads/uploads various bits of information in the
access database.
The original application is designed for some poor sod to sit there
for hours and manually do the necessary.

easily print a text file from Python using:

I wonder if anyone know how to activate a window with a given window
handler. I used to do this with the win32 API
static native boolean SetForegroundWindow(int hwnd);
I wonder if there is native support for that within .NET, instead having to
call WIN32 API.

I have a Windows form application that I generally run minimized. When a
critical event occurs it instantiates another "Alert" form which I want to
grab the user focus.
In the Alert constructor I call both this.Show() and this.Activate(), but if
the parent application is minimized then the Alert form will also stay
minimized (and just flash).
How can I cause the Alert form to show itself and grab focus?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
