Dear Oleg,
Does the fact that you haven't replied to this posting mean that you didn't understand my question or does it mean that it can't be done?

task delay dependent on window appearance
Dear Oleg, I recall some months ago coming across information about how to set a delay in a task until a certain window (or part of a window) had appeared. I think you either sent it out as an email suggestion or it appeared in the forum... problem is NOW I can't find the info. I use an application ...

waiting for a window to accept input
Hi! Another one. I know that when i first open an application I can specift that I want to wait until the application is ready to receive input before the task continues. I'd assumed that the 'wait for process' is the same thing but then for applications / processes already open. I use a FoxPro base...

detect a new external hardrive
May I take this one a step further? How about if that device is a specific camera ('when camera is connected via USB cable, start processing files...') especially when that camera appears in 'my computer' but as a camera device rather than getting an assigned drive letter? Can I trigger whenever ANY...

interacting with Excel
Dear Oleg, I have found copying excel fields into Robotask challenging. When i use 'copy' in robotask when a particular excel field is highlighted, and then use 'get text' to assign the clipboard information to a variable, not only does the text / number that's visible in the excel field get copied ...

"Enter" is pressed after a variable
I have noticed this too and it's confusing... My impression is that when using 'send keystrokes' that pressing enter in the window in which you create your commands also acts as one of the <CR> ('enter') commands. in other words the window that you enter your keystrokes in is not huge. you create a ...

send keystrokes problem in MS Excel
Dear Oleg, Thank you for you reply. Guess what, I think I know what caused the 'sticky key' problem. I use remote desktop to log into my work computer at night. So I am running robotask essentially remotely. The 'sticky key' problem is probably because when using remote desktop dpending on one's con...

send keystrokes problem in MS Excel
Hi. My first posting... Search of forum reveals I may not be the first with this problem BUT I can't see a clear solution. When sending keystrokes to Excel it appears that Robotask presses the keys 'too long'. If in Excel one physically/normally presses e.g. the down arrow button for too long then r...
