how do i get the fuction keys to transmit in procomm plus 1

I am trying to write a script to open an application then use a function key to switch to the next block in the form.The function key is f8 and the code for it is [[25~ and the ~ is seen as a pause. Any one have any ideas on how to do this?

Assuming you are using the transmit command, add the keyword RAW at the end of the line. That will cause Procomm to not interpret the tilde as a pause.

Sorry, i forgot to mention that i'm not trying to send the code for f8 but the function called by f8 which is next block. do i need to know the actual command that it calls if so how do i find it? Ive looked ing the kbd map and found that only the code for f8 is listed.

So you want to send what is currently mapped for F8, i.e. tell your script to transmit an F8? If so, try sendvkey 0x77.
