Send Func

[moe987]

First of all, to get things straight.. im pretty much a newb wen it comes to autoit, so don't criticize me if you think this question is retarded lol:

Does anyone know how to send text or command to an inputbox, i mean such as

Inputbox("Example","Enter _____") Send("a{enter}") or anything.

Everytime i try to do it, it wouldn't send anything, but once i press ok then it sends the commands, any suggestions?

Well tell me why you want to do this and maybe i can come up with a better way to do it.

Hello moe987,

First, welcome to the forums!

Second, the reason why it won't send info is because the script is paused while the InputBox exists. When you click 'OK', the dialog disappears and the script resumes.

One workaround is to place the InputBox in a separate script. Then run a separate script that interacts with it.

Why not just set the Inputbox data with what you want to send? I don't get it.
