hi,
how do you simulate pressing CTRL and A at the same time? would you use the SendKeys method? If so I am not sure of the code? If not, any ideas? thanks in advance, geebee |

simulate pressing CTRL and A
Ctrl+A will select all cells so you should be able to use
cells.select -- HTH... Jim Thomlinson "geebee" wrote: hi, how do you simulate pressing CTRL and A at the same time? would you use the SendKeys method? If so I am not sure of the code? If not, any ideas? thanks in advance, geebee |

simulate pressing CTRL and A
hi,
well this is being done while in an IE window. i used the following to simulate hitting ENTER key: Windows.Application.SendKeys "{ENTER}" SendKeys "{ENTER}" so i am afraid cells.select will not work within the IE window. is there a more specific sendkeys code? thanks in advance, geebee "Jim Thomlinson" wrote: Ctrl+A will select all cells so you should be able to use cells.select -- HTH...

Try using "^A" as the argument to the SendKeys method (which is covered in
the help files for SendKeys by the way). -- Rick (MVP - Excel) "geebee" (noSPAMs) wrote in message ... hi, well this is being done while in an IE window. i used the following to simulate hitting ENTER key: Windows.Application.SendKeys "{ENTER}" SendKeys "{ENTER}" so i am afraid cells.select will not work within the IE window. is there a more specific sendkeys code? thanks in advance, geebee "Jim Thomlinson" wrote: Ctrl+A will select all cells so you should be able to use cells.select -- HTH...

simulate pressing CTRL and A
hi,
i am now using... Windows.Application.SendKeys ("^A") SendKeys ("^A") its not giving me an error message, but at the same time it is not doing anything either. im not sure what going on. any ideas? is there a more dependable method? thanks in advance, geebee "Rick Rothstein" wrote: Try using "^A" as the argument to the SendKeys method (which is covered in the help files for SendKeys by the way). -- Rick (MVP - Excel) "geebee" (noSPAMs) wrote in message ... hi, well this is being done while in an IE window. i used the following to simulate hitting ENTER key: Windows.Application.SendKeys "{ENTER}" SendKeys "{ENTER}" so i am afraid cells.select will not work within the IE window. is there a more specific sendkeys code? thanks in advance, geebee "Jim Thomlinson" wrote: Ctrl+A will select all cells so you should be able to use cells.select -- HTH...

I've not done much (read that as nearly nothing) with web interfacing, so I
can't answer your question directly... I was only responding to your stated SendKeys question itself. Hopefully someone with experience using IE interaction will come along and address your problem. -- Rick (MVP - Excel) "geebee" (noSPAMs) wrote in message ... hi, i am now using...
