RE: [Talk] Location of Windows key strokes

[White, Scott A]

Yes sir, that does work.

 

However, I unfortunately am trying to open either Wordpad or even my default web browser to navigate through

some of the fields in my task log.

 

I've opened Wordpad and my browser successfully; but cannot do anything with it once it's open.

 

Your suggestions does has it's application in other areas; but what I'm failing to understand is how to interact

with a windows application after opening it.

 

Thank you,

 

Scott

have you tried a simple

Open "C:\file.txt" for output as 1

Print #1,"this is my note"

Close 1

This will build a txt file, that you can keep open to write progress notes or errors to.

I guess it's not that "cut & dry" for me. Sorry folks; but for some reason I cannot get this to work.

All I'm trying to do is open WORDPAD, then enter a few lines of text and file/save it.

Sub OpenWordpad(Optional dummay As String)
Shell "C:\Program Files\Windows NT\Accessories\wordpad.exe"
On Error Resume Next
Wait 1
'Activate "wordpad"
Activate "C:\Program Files\Windows NT\Accessories\wordpad.exe"
Connect "C:\Program Files\Windows NT\Accessories\wordpad.exe", stWindows
End Sub


Sub EnteringMsg(Optional dummy As String)
Enter " This message is coming from an automated script created"
Enter "by Scott White, using Boston Workstation. 222"
SendKeys "%{F}"
End Sub


It crashes and creates and error log that I'm not sure of the location.

On a good note..... it does open WORDPAD; but doesn't place any text into it.

Thanks,
Scott

Good morning all.
Can someone point me to the url that houses a list of commands to use
in BWS for controlling windows apps.?

I'm looking for the equivalent of sending <alt+F> and <alt+P>, and things along
those lines.

Thank you,
Scott
