I'm trying to send the + sign of the numeric keypad but I didn't find a
proper sequence for this.
Doing
SendKeys "{+}"
will only send the + sign of the "normal" keypad but not the one of the
numeric keypad.
Unfortunately some applications differentiate between the "normal" + and the
numeric +.
Has anybody an idea how to send a numeric + via SendKeys?
I didn't find one...
Thank you!

Regards,
-Thomas

Hi

AutoItX's sendkey method supports this:

Set oAutoIt = CreateObject("AutoItX.Control")
oAutoIt.Send "{NUMPADADD}"


AutoIt/AutoItX is free and can be found here:

AutoItX is an ActiveX control version of AutoIt and can be used from
a vbscript.
