Problem with ControlSend in DataGridView

[jamiejose]

Hi,

I have a DataGridview and I wanted AutoIt to input data using Control Send. The problem is the inputted strings are limited to one character.

For Example, If I wanted to input 5000, controlsend will only key in 5, the three zeros are not inputted.. please help me with this problem..thanks!

Ok, I would like to send data in a DataGridView, Let's say I assigned the string "Red" to be added in one of the cells of the gridview. I used ControlSend Function.. here's my Code..

$formName = "window title"

$newRate = "Red"

ControlSend($formName, "", "[NAME:DataGridView1]", $newRate, $flag)

When I run the AutoIT script, instead of writting "Red", it only writes "R".. How can I solve my problem?

[jamiejose]

Using Send Function gives me better result, but I wanted to use ControlSend since it is more efficient.

How can I solve this issue? please help me.. Thanks!

Hi! PhoenixXL

I'm using VB.net (Visual Studio 2008).. I've already tried using ControlSetText and it didn't work either..

What is the value of $flag?

[jamiejose]

$flag = 0

[water]

What version of AutoIt do you use?

[jamiejose]

I used AutoIt V3.

[water]

Yes, but version 3.3.8.1 (the latest) or an older version?

[jamiejose]

oops sorry, I used v3.3.6.1

[water]

Could you try to set $flag = 1 so the data is sent raw?

[PhoenixXL]

Also Try with ControlSetText with Flag=1

Maybe Redrawing the Window WOULD hELP

[jamiejose]

Hi water, I tried setting $flag = 1 and still I get the same result.

Maybe the send is too fast. Could you please try the following:

AutoItSetOption("SendKeyDelay", 100)
$formName = "window title"
$newRate = "Red"
ControlSend($formName, "", "[NAME:DataGridView1]", $newRate, $flag)

[jamiejose]

I've set the SendKeyDelay to 100 and still I get the same result..=(

[jamiejose]

I think, I'll just use the Send Function.. Thanks guyz!
