Hi guys.
Writing another script again to help out my "lovely" staff. But need some help.
Current Issue:
We open different format docs word, excel, adobe etc
When users press print they are presented with a popup (its actually a program [CLASS:#32770])
They must then type a matter number that this doc reffers to into this pop up so they can bill for the printing.
What I want:
Type the matter number in automatically when the popup appears.
The scripts so Far:
Get title from document
Strip down title to just the document number
Lookup a temp file (created by our doc management program) and get matter number out of it.
The issue:
My script currently only gets the matter number from a document when hotkey is pressed as im still testing.
But should I run the GetMatter function every time a window changes? and winwait for the popup to then type in the number? (not sure how to do the first bit)
But Would that use a lot of processing power?
If that isn't a good option could I winwait for the popup then somehow switch back to the LAST active window and get the title?
Thanks for any help and hope my question isnt to confusing 
Here is my current code for testing.
