ControlSend()

[dat]

Hello everyone,

Need help with ControlSend().

$oIE = _IECreate("www.yahoo.com");

ControlSend ("Yahoo! - Microsoft Internet Explorer","","","{TAB 3}{ENTER}")

Why doesn't anything respond?

I'm pretty certain that you can't do a ControlSend with just the window title. It needs a control id, I'm pretty sure you could use IE.au3 to do what you are wanting to do. Your only other option is to do something like this.

$oIE = _IECreate("www.yahoo.com")
Send ("{TAB 3}{ENTER}")

EDIT: Changed some stuff.

Does {Tab 3} even exist? Wouldn't it just be {TAB} ?

Yes, does exist. Look at helpfile for tips...
