When using Surface Automation Blue Prism is required to read the text contained within the Notes field below:

To do this, the field must be highlighted and the Keystrokes CTRL & C must be sent to the application to copy the text to the clipboard.

The Note Box has been identified as a Region within the following Application Model.

Assuming all the text in the Notes field has been successfully highlighted, which of the following stages will successfully send CTRL & C to the application to copy the highlighted text to the Clipboard?

Correct Answer:

In order to successfully send the keystrokes CTRL & C, the use of Global Send Key Events is more appropriate for making sure the key press is properly recognized by the application, especially in cases where Global Send Keys might not accurately simulate the key press. The correct approach to represent CTRL & C in Global Send Key Events would be using the value "^c" directly, as depicted in option B. This allows the action to simulate the key press events accurately within the application. Based on this information, option B (Global Send Key Events with the text value "^c") is the most suitable choice for sending the CTRL & C keystrokes to the application to copy highlighted text to the clipboard.
