How to get Send to work properly

[taduh]

I have a compiled executable script. It consists of the following line:

Send("!XE",0)

This, to my understanding, should, when executed, send the ALT-X key which will drop down a menu within Excel, then select the feature identified by the capital letter E, on the drop-down. What it winds up doing instead, is writing the letter E to the active cell on the spreadsheet.

Any ideas about what's going on or how to resolve?

By the way, the ALT-X and E which appear on my Excel toolbar are the result of an addin thats loaded to my version of Excel.

Thanks!

Use lowercase letters, otherwise it is implying Shift.

Send("!xe"); Alt+x, then e

Send("!XE"); Alt+Shift+x, then capital E
