Keys method is not entering "*" with the latest TestComplete version

Question

Hi,There's a potential bug I found in latest TestComplete version (15.72.60.7), where the "Keys" method is not entering "*" in the text field, the old version of TestComplete was fine. Also, I tried entering "*" using "SetText" method, and it works fine. Because of this some of my test cases are failing.&nbsp;Thanks,Hina

Hi Hassan,Thank you for your reply. [NumAsterisk] worked!! But I have opened a support ticket to get this fixed. I have couple of test cases using *, it's going to be an effort to update all of them.

I found it.&nbsp; I don't think there is anything there to help you however.&nbsp; 🫤&nbsp; The last post seems to be left at a problem with 15.72.Problem entering character * | SmartBear Community

Yes try using the [NumAsterisk] instead of *, it may get you going.

Hi Scot,Thanks for your reply. I tried all the scenarios you asked for, it doesn't work, only [NumAsterisk] works as suggested by Hassan.Thanks,Hina

Oh and also ** keys in single *, as suggested by support guy, that's another workaround for now.
