Keystrokes
In Forms Data
Loader you can send keystrokes to the target application by
entering the "\" as the starting letter. FDL recognizes a cell
as keystroke if the cell contains as back slash "\" in the first
position. For Example to send ALT and F keystroke enter \%F to send "ALT-FV" enter \%FV.
To specify
characters that aren't displayed when you press a key, such as
ENTER or TAB, and keys that represent actions rather than characters, use the codes shown below:

To
specify keys combined with any
combination of the SHIFT, CTRL, and ALT keys, precede the key code
with one or more of the following codes:
|
Key |
Code |
|
SHIFT |
+ |
|
CTRL |
^ |
|
ALT |
% |
To
specify that any combination of SHIFT, CTRL, and ALT should be held
down while several other keys are pressed, enclose the code for
those keys in parentheses. For example, to specify to hold down
SHIFT while E and C are pressed, use
"\+(EC)".
To specify to hold down SHIFT
while E is pressed, followed by C without SHIFT, use
"\+EC".
To
specify repeating keys, use the form
{key number}.
You must put a
space between
key
and
number.
For example,
\{LEFT
42}
means press the LEFT ARROW key 42 times;
\{h 10}
means press H 10 times

What it does |
|
*MC(x,y) |
If you
enter *MC(x,y) in a cell, it tells FDL to simulate a mouse
click in the target application while loading.
X means X
- Screen Coordinate and Y means Y - Screen Coordinate.
For example
if you enter *MC(430,240) then FDL will simulate a mouse
left click on the screen at the 430,240 coordinate while
loading.
To
capture exact coordinates please use our Get Screen
Coordinate Tool by clicking on the Tools Menu.
