Problem sending LWIN and r

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I'm having an issue when attempting to bring up the RUN command. Left Windows key and r.

I've tried the following

Send("{LWIN r}")

Send("{LWINr}")

Send("{LWIN down}")

Send("{r}")

Send("{LWIN up}")

None seem to work..Am I missing something to combine the LWIN and "r"?

Thanks in advance.

Gonzola,

big difference between skimming thru the help file and reading it

Lesson learned I hope. ;)

win+x

Okay I must be missing something as well. Have read the help file and tried everything Gonzola tried. I get the win+r to work but for the life of me can't get win+x to work. Manually win+x brings up the advanced context menu in windows 8. Any hints appreciated.

Already tried:

Send("#x") <-- does nothing

Send("{LWIN}x") <-- dumps x into search box

Send("{LWINDOWN}x{LWINUP}") <-- does nothing

big difference between skimming thru the help file and reading it. I "see" it now in the help file.

Then I might suggest you to read the Run and ShellExecute

functions

My code:

PredictText: Predict Text of an Edit Control Like Scite. Remote Gmail: Execute your Scripts through Gmail. StringRegExp:Share and learn RegExp.

Run As System: A command line wrapper around PSEXEC.exe to execute your apps scripts as System (LSA). Database: An easier approach for _SQ_LITE beginners.

MathsEx: A UDF for Fractions and LCM, GCF/HCF. FloatingText: An UDF for make your text floating. Clipboard Extendor: A clipboard monitoring tool. 

Custom ScrollBar: Scroll Bar made with GDI+, user can use bitmaps instead. RestrictEdit_SRE: Restrict text in an Edit Control through a Regular Expression.
