Zohar Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 (edited) HelloSome time ago, I asked How to Send Alt-Shift or Ctrl-Shift, and got a simple and working answer:Send("!{LSHIFT}")but now it suddenly stopped working.When I execute it, nothing happens..(and If I manually press Alt-Shift myself, it works..)What is the problem?How can I make it work again?Thank you Edited May 8, 2010 by Zohar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zohar Posted May 7, 2010 Author Share Posted May 7, 2010 (edited) I did 2 things between "before" and "now": 1) Reformatted my PC, using Same OS and ServicePack(WindowsXP+SP3+AllUpdatesFromWindowsUpdate) (by "all updates" I also mean I installed IE8..) 2) Installed Latest version of AutoIt the programs have not changed..

water Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 I tried it myself using notepad and the Alt-key gets absorbed by notepad. Could you please try: Send("{ALTDOWN}{LSHIFT}{ALTUP}") This worked for me.
