Hi,

I'm having issues with sending a text value. It seems Foxtrot thinks I'm using a different keyboad layout. So when I send a text value I'm not sending what I have put into the action.

For instance: 

Table1[#All] 

Becomes:

Table1´#Allå

I have my settings in Windows to DAN with Danish keyboard. I can't find a setting in Foxtrot that handles this. 

I'm sending to Excel 2016.

Any thoughts?

  This field can be a bit tricky as Excel validates all entered characters. Sometimes it can help to split your action into two "Send Value"s. Please see this recording: https://www.screencast.com/t/DHrceQZso8

  "Speed: Auto" should be the best option in this scenario.

  Hi Andreas,

  Could you provide a screenshot of where you are trying to send the value to?

  Usually, this could have something to do with the speed setting of your "Send Value" action. Sometimes the problem is solved by setting it to 'Auto' or 'Very Slow'. Otherwise, it might be necessary to enable the 'Click before sending' option.

  Yes:

  

  Here's the action. But it takes the wrong symbol for all my actions in this short script. It used to work. But something has changed.
