Auto Start GPS On Autoroute

ccsnet · 05-17-2003, 10:35 AM

Hi all,

As I am using Media Engine I wanted one touch starts for most of my apps. Autoroute was one that you have press a load of key commands in to start the GPS locator.

Because of this I have written a little proggy wit Autoscript.

You can find it here ( http://www.letscommunicate.co.uk/car...s.htm#download at the bottom of the screen ) on my site for downloading. Intructions are with it how ever I have only been able to test with MS Autoroute 2002 but I do belive it should work with other versions.

Please - if you do try other versions let me know how you get on...

Thanks

Terran

Good idea, but it didn't work for me

It referenced c:\\program files\\microsoft autoroute\\ and the error was 'inappropriate use of backslash' or words to that effect. Plus, my install is in c:\program files\microsoft\autoroute

Strooth - thats a post from the past - well I think you have posted your own solution there... the software needs to be in the default dirs etc... - try that and then get back to me.

Thanks

Would love to, if I could get that AutoIT thing to work

I spent about an hour on it today, and I could even work out how to get it to record stuff. I'll have another pop later.

Any chance I could have the password to the file so I can 'decrypt' it with the software and change it manually? If not, don't worry about it, I just thought it'd be easier for me to do it that way. I'd rather keep my microsoft\autoroute dir structure 'cos I've got other MS apps in that folder too and it's neater and easier to find stuff
