ControlSend not working

[Abaddon]

ControlSend isn't working for me.

Example: ControlSend ( "Diablo II", "", "", "{ENTER}" ) doesn't work. It sends it just like Send does.

I need some tips or a solution please I'm stuck I've looked through the help file.

What version are you running ?

MsgBox(64, "", @AutoItVersion)

ControlSend was tweaked in one of the latest betas so try updating to the latest one.

The newest at the moment is 3.2.3.12.

Yes, but that's not same though....he used a blank controlID (you didn't), which there was some problems with some versions ago.

Seems like 3.2.3.0 is where the fix was added :

- Fixed: ControlSend() to empty "" ctrl fixed for inactive window. Also shift state behavior.

Sorry, but you're wrong. I have the latest Autoit version, and I'm still getting an error for:

WinWaitActive("Untitled")
$a=1
While $a<5
ControlSend("Untitled","",Edit1,Chr($a))
$a=$a+1
WEnd

Here's the error:

C:\Documents and Settings\Nunyobiznez\Desktop\sdfgjksdffjkghrjkl.au3(4,32) : ERROR: syntax error
ControlSend("Untitled","",Edit1,

ControlSend("Untitled","","Edit1",Chr($a))

ControlSend("Untitled","","Edit1",Chr($a))

Omg... I feel so stupid

Hey thanks the beta thing worked. But one small problem... if I am typing something and I use capslock while the code is running, it will use capslock in the control send. Is there any way around this?

[Abaddon]

Man that really sucks. I wasted so much time...
