El Glyndo Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Hi, I'm new to writing scripts. So I'm wondering if there is anything that shows me how to make all characters and keyboard functions appear in text if I use the "Send" function. For example, if I'm using AutoIt to write in several addresses on a database, how do I make the script Tab to the next field; and press Enter to drop to the next record? They're the things I'm referring to, as well as Shift, Alt, Control; all those keys. I think that shows how little experience I have of scripting!! :"> Cheers for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herewasplato Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 ...as well as Shift, Alt, Control; all those keys...be sure to pay attention to the example at the bottom of the help file document that Larry pointed you to. Also take note of the Win... functions. Send("#r") WinWaitActive("Run") Send("notepad.exe{Enter}") WinWaitActive("Untitled -") Send("Today's time/date is {F5}") [size="1"][font="Arial"].[u].[/u][/font][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Glyndo Posted June 6, 2006 Author Share Posted June 6, 2006 Cheers guys. I'd looked on the Help file in the AutoIt folder, and also the Scite help file but couldn't find anything there. Think I'll be printing this out as an easy reference! Once again, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
