WaitKeyDown + Wildcard?

TreeFish · Post by **TreeFish** » Mon Feb 02, 2004 1:05 am

Hi all

I am trying to make a script that will press the control key until another key (any key) is pressed. Can the "WaitKeyDown>" command be used with wild cards? I've tried simply using an asterix but that doesn't seem to work.

Here is my script so far:
Press LCTRL
WaitKeyDown>*
Release LCTRL

Any idea's/suggestions/solutions?

Thanks!

Hi,

Unfortunately WaitKeyDown does not accept a wildcard. Nice idea though and I will add it to the wish list.

I can't think of a way at present to wait for any key - unless you can find an ActiveX object that implements some sort of Inkey function - then you could use it with VBscript.

That's also an obvious wish list candidate - Inkey. Will add it.
