[DamnYouAll]

This should get you started:

AutoItSetOption("WinTitleMatchMode",2)
$IEPATH= "c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe" & " www.google.com"
Run($IEPATH,"",@SW_MINIMIZE)
Sleep(3000)
;ControlSend("Microsoft Internet Explorer","","Edit1","www.google.com" & "{ENTER}")
ControlSend("Google - Microsoft Internet Explorer","","Internet Explorer_Server1","AutoIt3" & "{ENTER}")
Sleep(2000)
WinSetState("Google", "",@SW_MAXIMIZE)

i got it to work but i cant use it to send an @symbol ive tried to use + and {SHIFT} but i always get a 2 not an @ . alnd when i try to use 2 controlsends in thr same script the second one doesn''t work?

[Jos]

also Send("@") doesn't work ?

[DamnYouAll]

no i am using it in a control send so can i put a send command inside a control send

[Jos]

I guess what i wanted to ask is: What did you use in the controlsend command, because you talk about + and {SHIFT} where i think the @ can be used just as is...

Controlsend("title...","text...","Control....", "text@site.com")

just like that with the @ but it would just put a 2

[Jos]

can you post an example code that gives you this issue when you run it, so we can have a look en test it ?
