Typing a variable automatically presses enter for me.

Sorry if this is really basic, I cannot find a workaround. I have a variable called 'doc' that stores the number 510 that was copied from an excel cell.

I need to type it in a field, but I need to continue typing in another field on the same page afterwards.

My code has:

type(doc)
The log shows:

[log] TYPE "510#ENTER."
The full code looks like this:

type(doc)
wait(1)
type(Key.DOWN)
type(Key.BACKSPACE+Key.BACKSPACE+Key.BACKSPACE+Key.BACKSPACE)
wait(1)
type(code)
However, I can't ged to the 'type(code)' because it switches page before I get there...

Thank you for the help, it is much appreciated! S

Your type(doc) is logged as
[log] TYPE "510#ENTER."

this means, that your doc variable is string, that is ended with a \n, which in turn is interpreted as an type(Key.ENTER), which surely activates some ok button.

type(doc.strip()) might help (strips white space from beginning and end of string)
