From: blinkdt on 9 Dec 2008 23:20 Baron, can you share your AutoIt code with us? I ended up using AutoIt to execute a shortcut to "Connect to" renamed to "Connect" and placed in the same directory like so: ShellExecute("C:\Program Files\WiFi\Connect.lnk") But I would like to dispense with the shortcut entirely. Any ideas are greatly appreciated, this one has me stumped.
