error when mixing commands

[TDMIS]

can the send command be used in conjunction with other commands like controlfocus, controlclick, etc..... ????

Sure. You can trade them off with each other.

This example opens the "Add Port" dialog in the Windows Firewall control panel, sets the focus to the second Edit box (the port number) and then uses Send to add the port number. I included but commented out the ControlSetText command that you could also use in this situation.

Run("RunDll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL firewall.cpl")
WinWait("Windows Firewall")
WinWaitActive("Windows Firewall")
Send("^{TAB}")
ControlClick("Windows Firewall", "Windows Firewall", "Add P&ort...")
WinWait("Add a Port")
;~ ControlSetText ( "Add a Port", "Windows Firewall", "Edit2", "1234" )
ControlFocus("Add a Port", "Windows Firewall", "Edit2")
Send("1234")
