shiv Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Hi All, I want to use special charaters inside the subject of any composed mail using outlook Suppose i want to use "&!@#$%^&*<>?*" as subject but what's happning is that these special charaters are not getting pasted in the subject text area Instead browser is getting opened when this event takes place. i think autoit is reading these special charaters as some other command or anything else However instad of special charaters if i use simple letters like "test mail" then it is working fine. Can you please suggest how can i use these special charaters as simple string Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shiv Posted November 21, 2013 Author Share Posted November 21, 2013 Yeaph we can do this manually, But can we do this with the code i.e. can we store a group of special charaters with in a variable I used it as $sSpecialCharaters = "a"&"!"&"@"&"#"&"$"&"%"&"^"&"&"&"*"&"?"&"/"&"|"&""&"("&"<"&">"&","&"."&":"&";"&"~"&"`"&"+"&"=" but did not succeed Then i used it as " Test!@#$%^&*?/|(<>,.:;'~`+=Mail" but failed again One more thicg want to mentioned is that i am using send function like send($sSpecialCharaters) to send these charaters in the subject field Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
