Nearly impossible.

As LArry said you can use ControlSetText.

But that way is not always wanted, because it replaces all the current text with new text.

As far as I know the ONLY way to send text instantly is USING paste.

2 Examples:

1.

$Text = "Send this text please..."
ClipPut($Text)
Send('^v')  ; Ctrl+V (paste the text)

2.

$Text = "Send this text please..."
ClipPut($Text)
ControlSend('Window Title', '', 'Edit1', '^v')  ; Ctrl+V (paste the text)

There is. Check the help file for AutoItSetOption, SendKeyDelay.

You're welcome. I was not sure it would help as post #1 said "instantly", but I'm pleased it did.
