Default PDF document that has Text Entry fields


There may be an easier way. If you can create shortcut keys to
refernce the boxes then you may be able to use a SendKey command to
enter the text.


If you look at any window application yo uwill see an underline on some
of the menu items which indicates that yo ucan access the menu by typing
Alt and the character. I use this often in Office documents for saving
files. I type Alt-F (for file menu) and ALT-S for save. When I'm
typing on the key board it takes time to reach for the mouse to perform
a save.

If you can get the focus (the mouse pointer) to select the text box
then you can fill the box using the Sendkey method. Sometimes just send
the tab character using the SendKey wil move the focus from one object
to another object.
