not able to click a button

Hi All,

I am trying to automate windows based application which contains spaces in the application name. I am able to open app with the help of below code:

from pywinauto.application import Application
app=Application().start('c:\\program files\\ESPWorkstation.exe')

we will receive a popup window (below) which allows us to proceed further

now i need to click on load button to proceed further.

Can some one help me on this issue?

Also, I need to navigate to a window which contains spaces after clicking load button to proceed with.

Thanks, rajarameshmamidi

Hi @rajarameshmamidi this is easy to use spaces with key access instead of attribute access:

app['Load the User Profile'].LoadButton.click_input()

Anyway the name like app.Load_the_User_Profile should work since the best_match algorithm is resistant to typos. This is approximate matching of the name.

For more details I’d recommend to learn the Getting Started Guide first before submitting so many questions. If some paragraph is unclear in the guide, it’s a good reason to submit an issue.

Thanks for understanding.
