KEY Keyword

The KEY statement lets you send a keystroke string to the target session. To send normal text characters, it is not necessary to use special abbreviations; however, you must type the characters in the same case that you want CA Automation Point to send them.

This keyword has the following format:

KEY=(keystrokes)

keystrokes

Specifies the keystroke string to be sent to the target session. This value ends with @E (the ENTER operation), unless you are sending a PF or PA key.

Note: For a list of valid keyboard operations, see the Administrator Guide.

KEY=(K A,NONE@E)
