You need to know what controlID you are sending text to, use AutoIt Windows Info to retrieve it, an example would be..From the help file

Run("notepad.exe")
WinWait("Untitled -")
ControlSetText("Untitled -", "", "Edit1", "New Text Here" )

Bellow is the current script im trying to get working

Global $Paused

HotKeySet("{END}", "TogglePause")

HotKeySet("{HOME}", "Terminate")

While 1

Sleep(100)

WEnd

Func TogglePause()

$Paused = NOT $Paused

While $Paused

sleep(100)

send("test")

send("{ENTER}")

WEnd

EndFunc

Func Terminate()

Exit 0

EndFunc

it types but makes ding sounds every time

Not sure what's causing the ding sound, but you should focus on a control that allows text to be inserted.
