Hi Guys

I am currently having trouble sending keys to a Application on Citrix,

I can get focus on it (using AppActivate) however when ever using a sendkeys statement it does nothing,

something to note is that the citrix Application does not appear in the start bar.

Code:
'AppActivateByStringPart is a function which searches for a window with the definded string in it.

AppActivateByStringPart "\\"
Sleep 1000
SendKeys "(%{F4})", True
 
You might ask the guys in the Citrix forum this question?

There is a lot of work put into making your current desktop session (outside citrix) not available within the citrix session (and vice versa) for security purposes. I'm no expert on citrix, but I suspect something like this is preventing the SendKeys from working.

I think the experts in the Citrix forum would know the answer for sure though (its' not the most heavily travelled forum, so it may take a little while to get an answer) forum48

Hope this helps,

Alex
