Sending an ascii variable with send("{ASC }")

[Dryden]

so this is the deal: I'm tring to make a send to send a key ins ascii. The key cannot be send in the normal format cos it is already assigned as an hotkey.

This is just a little bit of code, but in this bit the $tecla variable as an "a" on it and if i do a Send($tecla) the script will flip cos "a" is an hotkey. I tried to use send("{ASC 97}") and it works, but the problem is that nomater what $tecla is it always outputs an "a". Finnaly I tried converting $tecla to ASCII and sendit it as an ascci code, the problem is it's just not working:

MsgBox(0, "aaa:", $tecla)  ;<- In here the output is an a
    $tecla=Asc($tecla)
    MsgBox(0, "aaa:", $tecla);<- In here the output is 97
    send("{ASC ($tecla)}")
    MsgBox(0, "aaa:", $tecla);<- In here the output is 97

any ideas??

anyone???

either sending it using send("{ASC }") or if possible disabling the hotkey and reenabling it in the end of the function.

Try that as:

send("{ASC " & $tecla & "}")
