upper case to lower?

[MikePainter]

I have a program that uses radio buttons to create a filename based on the date and the time.

E.G. 091808Wed-7PM.csv.

I use

ControlSend("Enter name of file to save to", "", "[CLASS:Edit; INSTANCE:1]","{HOME} {DEL 15}" & $BroadcastName) to write the name.

{HOME} {INS} was sticking odd characters on the end.

The program works exactly as I want it to but every once in a while the "PM" or "AM" gets written in lower case, "pm" or "am"

Any ideas on why this happens.

Use controlsettext() instead. It's possible something is holding the shift down (you or another app) at the exact instance it's sending.
