Only works fine pressing Left Shift

[yodrako]

Hi, I'm spanish...my english is very bad, but I'll try to explain my problem

I have a script with a loop. The script copy a text of web and paste in excel. If de loop execute one time there aren't problems. If are 2 or more loops, Macro Scheduler (v. hold on.
I removed the loop and I extended the code, but the problem continued again.

I discover if before the second time the loop execute, I press the key left shift, it run fine. I prove to put the command "Press Lshift" but it doesn't work, the only solution it's press manually the key.

How can i solve it?

Sorry with my English..

Do you have a "Release LShift" to correspond with the "Press LShift" - do you make sure you repeat the key before the next loop? Do you ensure the correct window has the focus - do you have a SetFocus line before the key sends? Does the focus shift before the next loop iteration? Is the loop jumping too fast? Do you need a Wait statement somewhere? Have you tested it with the debugger?

[pgriffin]

Post the code and we can try to help you. Without seeing the code, it is almost impossible to know why it seems to be failing.

[yodrako]

using the debugger, the problem is here, in Ldown, do the key shift seems press

Why are you pressing SHIFT 10 times? in the normal course of an application, you might Press SHIFT then RELEASE SHIFT at some point before continuing.

LDown (just for clarification) is the act of Pressing the left Mouse Button.

Does your application use Shift to move between fields? what application are you automating?

[pgriffin]

ok, Why don't we all start over on this one.

I suggest you try to write (in as much detail as possible) the actual process you are trying to automate. Do not just post code bits. My guess is that we can show you how to create a quality end-user application if you can describe what it is you want.

You are trying to capture data from a screen? Then maybe write it to Excel?

[yodrako]

First time I record the movements, copy a text of a web, change to excel, paste, leave the cursor in the correct position for the next loop, advance one page of web...again.

I use this program (it's very very good) since one week. Because I record, after write more code, the loop...and press shift 10 times is automatic, I don't write, was the program.

You have no Release LShift statements. Therefore subsequent calls of this will be problematic since it thinks LShift is already pressed and thus all subsequent keysends will be sent WITH LShift. At the end of the loop add this:

Release LShift

I added that, and the problem continue... perhaps I should to do a new script...
