hi im trying to make a autot script,
that pastes a serial number into, a registration box
the serial number is in 6 lines
I figured out that if i put the first line,then
send('{ENTER}')
then the next line and
send('{ENTER}')
it pastes it in correctly but the serial no has + symbols in it and they dont get pasted in, ive been playing with
clipget and clipput.
but cant seem to get it to work
cheers

If you had posted the line your using it would be of great help

But anyhow, I'd do something like

Send("{ENTER}" & $string1 & "{ENTER}" & $string2")

hi thanks for your reply
the line im using is my serial heres the part with the + symbol
SEND("bF+qbmLvEjV+4JCAX+H/TBpG7pdEJ8IEW09ST8t60Poou/CT")
SEND('{ENTER}')
SEND("To+WvErl omRpMfd15+/2EA/SbxzdwKmX6ybVAYnLe4g3che")
SEND('{ENTER}')

when i send this the + are missing
Cheers

Thats because when using "Send" or "ControlSend" the "+" marks the next character as shifted.

To change this behavior simply set the flag for the command to 1.

Send ("+foo+", 1)

How ever I'd really suggest staying clear of Send & ControlSend if possible and instead use ControlSetText.

ControlSetText ( "title", "text", "Edit1", "+line 1+" & @LF & "+line 2+" & @LF & "+line 3+" )

thanks Nologic
the Send ("+foo+", 1) worked a treat
I dont understand the
ControlSetText ( "title", "text", "Edit1", "+line 1+" & @LF & "+line 2+" & @LF & "+line 3+" )

could you exsplan it please
