Type text into a window (not web)

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 12

I have a 'Windows Application' that i need to type text into on an annoyingly regular basis. 

I want to write a desktop flow that (essentially):

1. Finds the Window by name (though I could assume it is the active window)

2 type "<enter>the text<enter><enter>more text<enter>"

I don't think I need to select a particular control or UI element in the window -- hitting <enter> brings up the box I need to type in.

 

That's all.
