Post Colon converted to semicolon... Reply with quote

I am running into an interesting problem. In my sendkeys, I have a statement that has the following coded in sendkeys.

{WAIT 4}{ALT}{F}OE:\Projects\QA\Tests\Open Version 1.tns{ENTER}{ALT}{F}X

Strangely enough, when it runs, it tries to type in:

E;\Projects\QA\Tests\Open Version 1.tns

It replaces the ':' with a ';'. Am I missing something?

In SendKeys you specify keys not text, so pressing the ":/;" key will type ";" unless you hold down the Shift key.
To make your code work change it to the following:

{WAIT 4}{ALT}(FO)E{SHIFT}:\Projects\QA\Tests\Open Version 1.tns{ENTER}{ALT}(FX)

Thanks for the fix, though it seems a little counterintuitive. I would have expected to have it type $% as I entered it, and not {SHIFT}4{SHIFT}5.
