Send key not working properly - (Moved)

[Muhammad-Waleed-Sheikh]

Hi there all,

 

I am writing a script to automate basic web authentication, and it starts writing the data into the input fields, but it does not click the enter button. Even though send ("{ENTER}") is not working but after many attempts what I also saw was that in my password the last character is "#" and what I noted is that this is also not being written in the field. So what I thought was that because the password is not correct, that is why it is not clicking enter... 

But any help would be great here as I am stuck for many days.

WinWaitActive("","Authentication Required","10")
WinFlash("", "Authentication Required",4,500)
If WinExists("","Authentication Required") Then
  Send("adminsff")
  Send("{TAB}")
  Send("sffadmin&")
  Send("#")
  Send("{ENTER}")
ElseIf WinExists("","Chrome Legacy Window")Then
  Send("adminsff")
  Send("{TAB}")
  Send("sffadmin&")
  Send("#")
  Send("{ENTER}")
ElseIf WinExists("","Windows Security") Then
  Send("adminsff")
  Send("{TAB}")
  Send("sffadmin&")
  Send("#")
  Send("{ENTER}")
EndIf
 

 

In the above script firstly I was sending the "#" along with the password, but I thought maybe sending it separately would work, but it does not.

have you try {#} ?

'#' The hash sends a Windows keystroke; therefore, Send("#r") would send Win+r which launches the Run() dialog box.
