if I have a variable that I want to send to the screen
it is send>Variable or send>%variable%

You need to send it to a window on the screen.
And you must be sure the window is ready to accept inputs.
And you need to set focus in that window
And you must have the cursor in some position to accept the Send> command.

Someting like this:

Code: Select all

WaitWindowOpen>WindowName*
WaitReady>1
SetFocus>WindowName*
Tab*4
Send>My text to window goes here

if I have a variable that I want to send to the screen
it is send>Variable or send>%variable%

It doesn't matter unless you have chosen to set VAREXPLICIT=1. Unless you have done this Send>Variable is no different to Send>%Variable%.

With VAREXPLICIT set to 1, however, the first will send the literal string "Variable" and the second will send the contents of Variable.

See "Explicit Variable Resolution - VAREXPLICIT" under Command Reference / Using Variables in the documentation.
