Thanks and regards,

Native SendKeys support isn’t in Lotusscript, but you can use Win32 API-based alternatives (I haven’t used any others). Search this forum for more, or go here:

useful library, but the question was about capturing keystrokes, not sending them.

There’s not a way to do it with native Notes objects. I suppose you could write a Java applet and use that in place of a Notes field.

Oops yes. What about the onKeypress / onKeyDown events (Javascript only)? This depends whether you’re doing this stuff in the client or not (no go if you’re not). For example, IE will tell you what key gets used:

I am trying add a series of key strokes together to select the thumbnail option in a Windows Folder.

Ex. I create a temp directory on the fly.

C:\my documents\temp…

From there I want to use SendKey commands to hit alt, right 2, down, down 7, and then Enter.

(So that the thumbnail option would then selected.)

Is this possible using this library. If so, could you provide an example.
