I have a script that I run daily at a locked XP workstation. It runs okay, but once in awhile it times out at the target screen (Print Queued Reports) because the drop down menu to get into it, loses its focus before the script can get there. Maybe twice or three times a month.
I wanted to set up a timeout error to reset the script when this happens. The problem I'm having now is that the On Error GoTo & Timeout statements cause it to timeout ALL the time now (at least it's consistent now). I've tried to Activate the window before selecting the drop down menu, and that works if the workstation isn't locked, but not while it's locked.
Any suggestions? The workstation isn't in a secured area, so it can't really run unlocked.
