Pressing Space (I have allready cope with it)

Post by guyash2 » Mon Aug 08, 2005 12:48 pm

Hi,
I know the commands of pressing at buttons on the keyboard, like: "press enter", "press np8", "press F4" etc. but I dont know how do I press on the space?
I am talking about this button:

I succeeded in doing that by the command "send".

Nice picture.....

Just press the "space bar" key like you would press any other alpha-numberic key

This is correct:
Send>these words

This is not correct:
Send>these
Press Space
Send>words

To send a single space character just do this:
Send>
The line above has a "space" character just after the >
It is frequently necessary to use the tool to Remove Trailing Spaces. If it is used, the line above will no longer work because the trailing space will be removed. So after using the tool, you may need to manually reenter any trailing spaces again. I find this to be very rare, but your results may vary.
Hope this was helpful..................good luck,

You may find it very rare, but I find it annoying so I avoid the problem by using

ASC>32

instead of

SEND>

Thanks to armsys :wink:

Space is a CHARACTER. It is not a special key. Hence no special command for it. It is a character like 'A', 'B' and 'C'. So where we do "Send>A" for pressing A we "Send> " for sending a space character.

Thanks Me_again and ArmSys for the "Ascii>32" bit. Now I won't get warnings upon closing my macros. ;)
