Hello,
Automation via "keyboard simulation" is not reliable.
Reliable way to automate is to use OLE interface
and that is proper way to automate AmiQuote

Subject: [amibroker] amiquote lack of control
>I use a keyboard automation program (Automate) to do a lot of routine
> tasks, including tasks that must get done when I'm on vacation.
> (When I'm on vacation, it means I don't even log into a computer for
> *any* reason -- in fact, I don't even want to *see* a computer when
> I'm on vacation.)
> 
> I also keep a database of selected US indices and symbols (not
> large), that I update with Yahoo (dead-on accuracy is not necessary).
> But with Amiquote, I cannot toggle between 'Current' and
> 'Historical', because there is no way to do this via the keyboard.
> 
> Unfortunately, some Yahoo symbols have daily data, but no historical
> data.  I like to run 'Current' in the morning (my time), and
> 'Historical' in the afternoon.  Then I'm covered.
> 
> I have asked on more than one occasion that keyboard control be added
> to Amiquote, but it is apparently a very low priority.  However, my
> next paid Amibroker upgrade will be an equally low priority unless
> there is a way to accomplish what I feel I need to do.
