pwb2.SendKeys("{Alt n}") doesn't work with ComObject Topic is solved

[my-lord]

Hello guys.I want to send keys to ComObject.I tried following formats :

Code: Select all

pwb2 := (ComObjCreate("InternetExplorer.Application")).Visible:=True
;...
pwb2.SendKeys("{!n}") 
pwb2.SendKeys("{Alt n}") 
pwb2.SendKeys("!n") 

But no one is working.
What is the correct format for sending Alt+N?

But when I click this link, this page return 404 error.Maybe function is deprecated.Is there a way to send keys to the ComObject?

ok so? SendKeys() is a method implemented by Windows Script Host, not IE

Code: Select all

wsh := ComObjCreate("WScript.Shell")
wsh.SendKeys("some keys{Enter}")

Is there a way to send keys to the ComObject?

idk, probably not, it doesnt appear to be

you can try sending to the IE instance instead
