    Thanks Alex.

    obj.Keys("^A");  didn't work for me on Firefox, it opened a new tab with showing add-ons 

     

    however, this did work.

    obj.Click();

    obj.Keys(" "[Home]![End]") 

    obj.Keys("[Del]");

Hi,

 

Actually, .Keys("") does nothing, so I am not surprised that the field is not cleared. (To press Space key you should call .Keys(" ") -- space between quotes.)

What if you give a try to something like:

obj.Click(); // to set input focus into control;

obj.Keys("^A"); // Control-A to select all text (or "[Home]![End" -- Home, then Shift-End for the same purpose, or anything else that will select all text within control

obj.Keys("[Del]"); // Delete to clear the control

 

Does it help?
