Select multiple items in combo box html

Hi all, I'm stuck on a problem Under BluePrism v5 : I try to select multiple items in html Combo Box (or List box (AA)), but there is no such feature provided by the stage navigate on these types. I cannot simulate a click or keyboard event because in order to select multiple items the only way is to click on desired item while holding CTRL pressed. Unfortunately I don't know any way to reproduce this behaviour in BP... I attach a screenshot of the concerned combo box to this topic. I'd be gratefull for some help on this problem ! :)   Vincent

Hi Vincent, I can't verify this right now, but have you tried using Global Send Key Events? You could send ""{CTRL}"". Respectfully, Dave

Hi Vincent, There's a document in the Documents section of the portal. Just search for 'Send Keys' and it should come up in the results. It describes both Send Keys and Send Key Events. Glad it worked for you! Respectfully, Dave

I don't think he was using Select Item. As far as I've seen, you normally only need to use Select Item (using the item text or the item position) or you can use global send keys/key events to click items in a list box. What are you trying that isn't working for you?
