type("string1" [& "string2" [& "string3"...]])
Where:
| stringn | is a string of characters to be typed into the session. This field is case sensitive. Enclose stringn in double quotation marks ("") if it contains embedded spaces or commas. If a double quote (") needs to be included in stringn enter two double quotes (""). The two double quotes will be replaced by a single double quote when the string is typed. Any of the stringn parameters may be variables. If stringn is a variable the text associated with the variable is substituted and typed into the session at the current cursor location. |
The type command enters the string into a session at the current cursor location. If multiple stringn parameters are specified they are concatenated and typed into the session.
Examples
type("query names")
type($NAME)
type("This is how to include ""double quotes"" in the text")
type($CLIPBOARD)
type($FIRSTNAME & " " & $LASTNAME)
