Pause Button

[zaguber]

Hi ,

I have a script which runs in a loop for about 100 times or more . I have placed a pause button before the next loop to verify the datas entered are correct . Script is working satisfactorily . But i would like to know is there any short cut key to click the pause button without using the mouse . Because i have to use my mouse each time after a pause button . Kindly let me know whether i can enable it with the keyboard.

Thanks

Syed

Hello Syed,

Unfortunately, there is no shortcut key for the Resume button.

However, you can try something like following

Instead of Pause command, you can use the following commands in Automation Anywhere

If "Untitled - Notepad" Window Exists <Wait up to 9999 seconds for the window to open>
Close Window "Untitled - Notepad"
End If

So basically what this will do is pause the task for large amount of time and it will continue once the notepad window opens.

You can use Launch-n-Go or windows shortcut key feature to assign a shortcut key like Ctrl + Alt + G to open notepad when you want to resume the task.

This way you can simply type the hotkey to resume the task.

Hope this helps!
