where is your desired target for the text to be sent to?

@darkangel37, remove the quotes in your send line. When referencing a variable, do not put quotes around it.

Okay so here's an idea, because currently as soon as you launch the application, the text will be sent.

Press the + key (not numpad) to send to current active window

HotKeySet("{+}", "_Send")

$File = FileReadToArray("words.txt")

While 1
    Sleep(10)
WEnd

Func _Send()
    $RandomWords = $File[Random(0, UBound($File) - 1, 1)]
    Send($RandomWords)
EndFunc

Just close the application by clicking the tray icon and choosing exit
