Script Not Working Topic is solved

[wasimwani]

I have an application where we frequently use F1....F12 KEYS. F2 shows dropdown list, Shift+F4 selects a record, F10 commits a record and so on...I wanted to automate the above tasks. Since i am newbie to AutoHotKey, i wrote basic script as below

Code: Select all

^j::
   send, {f2}   //This will show user dropdown list
   send, {+f4} // Shift+F4 will select a record
   send, {f12} //User visits last page
   send, {+E}  // Ctrl+E expands a record
   send, {f10} //Commit 
Return

First line of code works, however its is stuck at 2nd line,. What am i doing wrong

Can't test it at the moment, but send, {+f4} seems wrong. I don't think that the + for 'shift' belongs in the curly braces. Try send, +{f4} instead.

Same with send, {+E} , especially because you write about 'Ctrl', but use the + for 'Shift' again.
Look here: https://autohotkey.com/docs/commands/Send.htm ^ is Ctrl. There is even an example how to do it: Send ^{Home} presses CONTROL+HOME
