So I installed 2007 (been using 2006 without issue since it came out) and for some reason it is not taking sendkeys from RR. For instance, if I throw a B02,0,162,49,60,"SENDKEY;%VZI","Zoom In"
the 2005 would zoom in, 2006 just sort of flashes the boarder and does nothing. Even doing a simple B04,52,288,49,60,"SENDKEY;^m","Change Map" does the same thing, sort of a flinch but no action.

I checked my pathing and the title bar stuff and it still looks the same, what could be going wrong?

I just realized, this is the first time I am using the 10.8.2006 version of RR on this laptop.

Ok, it might be a focus issue, if I click supper fast, sometimes I can see the menus do their thing and it takes the command, once.

at many times, doing this kind of stuff fails because the application is not responsive enough to accept all the keys as fast as RR can send. You can try adding a few wait commands in between the keys but depending on how the application handles focus it still wont work -- so not all applications work nicely with sendkeys (i.e. Streets & Trips). That's the main reason why there's built-in mappoint support.

Thanks guino,

I just went through and added "Activate" to all my sendkeys and it is working like a trooper now.

I am to much of a cheapskate and have hundereds of saved routes at this point (been using S&T since 2004).

Thanks again,
Chris

Can you tell me specificlly how you got S&T 2007 working? I, too, have added Acitvate to my commands, but still no dice.

any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks!!

Here's my S&T modified from John's Blue Devil Skin, the MS_STREETS_OSK on button 16 is the MS windows osk that I labeled in the Exectbl.ini file, so as to use elsewhere. Not the best onscreen keyboard but it works until I can find another one that is bigger and better. Button 9 calls the GaspriceFinder skin and button 12 is to play/stop the music..
