Both VB's SendKeys and our Windows Key commands are pretty much the same as actually pressing keys...they both go right to the hardware. You might try VB's SendKeys "keys to send", True command. The True causes the command to wait around until the keys are full absorbed. Also try:
Activate "Caption" Wait 1 SendKeys "keys to send", True Wait 1 in case there's a weird timing issue. Also try to paste the characters from the clipboard (VB6 only), as in: Activate "Caption" Clipboard.SetText "keys to send" SendKeys "^v", True Rich McNeil Boston Software Systems 866 653 5105 www.bostonworkstation.com -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Neil Carman Sent: Tuesday, April 13, 2004 12:23 PM To: Boston WorkStation Subject: [Talk] McKesson Practice Point Plus Has anyone written scripts to post claims in McKesson's Practice Point Plus? We are trying to post line items rather than claim totals. It is a GUI interface and I'm having trouble writing to the amount fields below the line item detail textbox. The upper part of the screen has claim information and I can locate the proper textboxes and write data to them. The lower part of the screen contains line item data. The values in the line item textboxes change depending on which line item is highlighted. I have been able to verify programatically and by watching it on screen that I am at the correct textbox, but attempts to write data do not get entered into the selected textbox. My test script attempts to write values in 3 different textboxes. I see the cursor appear in each of the three text boxes and I only write the value after verification that I am at the correct control, but nothing changes in the textboxes. After all 3 boxes have been written the cursor jumps to the Remark textbox in the claim portion of the screen and dumps a concatenation of the 3 entries in that textbox. I have tried a standard write and VB SendKeys but neither work. I've run out of ideas and would apprciate any suggestions that anyone might have. Thanks in advance. -- Neil Carman Director Technical Development Manigault & Associates LLC http://www.m-allc.com Work: (805) 680-5601 Fax: (714) 968-5632
