If a text field requires you to press enter rather than click a button to perform a search. How would you do that in Blue Prism? Also, how would you do it for other keys, e.g. CTRL, TAB, etc. Thank you in adavance.

Hi Tauseef,

Hi Tauseef, This could be done using the Global Send Keys in the Navigate stage using the targeted window as the element. Theses commands follow the same format as VBA send keys. The following are example values to add to the expression to get the desired behaviour: Enter - {ENTER} CTRL - {^} TAB - {TAB} https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa266279(v=vs.60).aspx

Thank you Conrad. I've tried

Hi , Passing keystrokes by Global Send Keys action terminates the corresponding application which positions at the bounds the object has read. And Global Send Key Events action results as an unsupported key while passing the uppercase value in textbox . ""{CAPSLOCK}sometext"" or ""(+SOME)text"" Most of the window application support Global Send Keys, but when i am trying Remote Desktop with surface Automation Global Send Keys terminates the existing application . Is there any way out to solve ? And what is the reason behind termination of application.
