Problem sending multiple keys to Selenium with Edge

[robw]

Hi
I've been exploring the use of Selenium to control/access a webpage in Edge.
I'm having real difficulty correctly sending the character sequence Ctrl + Alt + a to an input field on webpage.
It works fine if I just send a simple string such as "a" , so I guess it's something I'm doing wrong with the multiple key construction.
Any ideas?

Many Thanks
Rob


My code is as follows:-

Sub gogo()
Dim driver As New Selenium.WebDriver
Dim mykey As New Selenium.Keys


driver.Start "Edge"
driver.Get "WEALTH at work Trading Platform - Sign In Page"
driver.FindElementById("username").Click
snooze 5000 'sleep 5 secs

With driver.Actions
.KeyDown (mykey.Control)
.KeyDown (mykey.Alt)
.SendKeys ("a")
.KeyUp (mykey.Control)
.KeyUp (mykey.Alt)
.Perform
End With


End Sub

This depends a lot on if the VBA wrapper you are using can handle it or not (wherever these bindings came from ... unknown to me). What kind of UserName requires Control-Alt-A?

Thanks xenou
I found that I could simply use Application.Sendkeys "^%a" instead. This sends the required string and it has the desired result....Not a Selenium Method, which makes me feel a bit "unclean", but I guess I should be happy that it works

The string is a hotkey combo that instructs my password manager to enter the relevant uid/pw

Thanks for your help
