Start with the example scripts from the AutoIT installation. You could use a number of functions with the word 'Window' for deploying hotfixes. Try searching the AutoIT help for 'Window'.

MS Hotfix within an MST?
Please elaborate....

AutoIT should only be used when you have no choice but to work with a GUI.
For MS patches there is full switch support.

More information needed.

Most hotfixes from Microsoft (if that's what MST stands for) can be made silent with a /q.

He meant he wants to call a hotfix from within a transform (MST).

If you are after a AutoIT script, here is what it should look like:

Run("hotfix1.exe /passive /norestart")
sleep (5000) or WinWaitClose("messageboxtitle")
Run("hotfix2.exe /passive /norestart")
etc
