Help with copy and paste to warcraft

[Shifty]

I just want a simple script that will paste what is on the clipboard to World of Warcraft. I did:

WinActive("World of Warcraft")
Send("{ENTER}")
Send("{CTRLDOWN}")
Send("v")
Send("{CTRLUP}")

but it doesn't work.

The winactive function doesn't pause the script until the window is active. Use winwaitactive instead.

WinWaitActive("World of Warcraft")
Send("^v")

thanks, 1 problem though...

it only sends the string when i click on the WoW window to bring it into focus but i need it to send to the WoW window regardless if it has focus or not.

with that having been said, is there a way to send to a specific WoW window if more than 1 are open?

Try ControlSend instead of Send

Running multiple instances of WoW? Doesn't that violate the terms of use? You would need to get the handle of the instance that you wanted to send it to and use that with controlsend.

No, multiple wows aren't against TOS. People 5 box on one computer and it is perfectly legal per TOS. Thanks for ControlSend and I'll have a look in handles
