Send Vs. ControlSend

[igortar]

Hi Folks,

When I use Send command such as

Send("text message") I receive text message in current window? But when I replace this row with

ControlSend ("", "", "", "text message")

I don't receive reply in window

May be you have got ideas?

Maybe its because you are, with that command, looking for a window that has no title and a non-existing control (because of a faulty argument (a string instead of a value) where the control-ID should be) ?

ControlSend ( "title", "text", controlID, "string" )

title: The title of the window to access.

text: The text of the window to access.

controlID: The control to interact with. See Controls.

string: String of characters to send to the control.

Look at the example of controlsend in the helpfile, and this should make more sense to you.

The problem is that I can send {Enter} (TAB) and this is working, but I can not send just a text using controllsend function. May be it needs to use special flag to send just a text in controlsend function?

Try to:

ControlSend ("", "", ControlGetFocus ("", ""), "text message")
