We have written a script to KEY in a path\filename into a window... works great... unless the path has a tilde character. The tilde is interpreted as an ENTER key so it cuts off the file name. For example, this filename "C:\DOCUME~1\202374\LOCALS~1\Temp\filename.txt" gets truncated at "C:\DOCUME" because the ~ is interpreted as pressing the ENTER key (and pressing the ENTER key invokes the default Okay button on the window).
Is there a way to escape the tilde or represent it differently so that the KEY statement doesn't interpret it as an ENTER?
