RoboTask forum

That's great! Thank you Mikronos!Send keystrokes is one of the easier ways to automate basic work flow (for us not as programming centric folk) since I can watch the script working with the program after executing. Robotask has already saved me over 5 hours of work!~Sam

I ran into a similar problem and decided to increase/insert 3-18 second pauses between actions. If you run an automated process and you're not watching than the time spent dosn't matter as much as long as it is consistent.

Sorry to bump my question, how would I go about doing this Oleg?Thanks,Sam

Thank you Oleg, we'll give it a try to see if we can get it to work.Basically we're not running a database in MySQL, it's more like a FileMaker database in the type of data entry that is being done. This is part of scripting mundane tasks that our user have to do with physically moving content aroun...

Hi Oleg, is there a way to send the windows key as a keystroke? I.e. windows key + D to minimize all windows?Thanks,Sam

True enough, but we have people working over here with chisels
and stone tablets. :)Getting Robo to be able to do this means we can apply it to a variety middle ware database like software.~Sam

No problem.Basically I have individual folders that contain web data/page/s and in each folder I have a meta.txt file that contains information to be put into my database. On each line in the meta.txt file I have 6 one or two word descriptors  that are referenced for populating the six correspond dr...

Hi Ivo,Hmm, I was getting tripped up on reading the string part from a .txt file and translating it into key strokes. Basically I need to be able to read a string from a .txt file, navigate to a drop down list in a database and input the read value as keystrokes so I can navigate to that value in th...

Hi Oleg,This seems possible, but I wanted to put it out there to you. Basically I want to read a text value from a .txt file and convert that text value to Robotask individual key inputs as a way to navigate to the proper value in a database drop down list. I.e.:1. Open ".txt" file that co...

This is great, thank you Oleg!
