I'm trying to send a comma in the file my script is reading, I've tried everything and the only way I can get it to work is when I write it in the actual script, which I don't want to do.

I've tried:
TODAYI{,}82
TODAYI{","}82


I want to have it output TODAYI,82

Assuming I understand and assuming you have a recent version of WinBatch....maybe something like:


  TODAYI:",":82

or take a look at StrCat().

Because of the braces, I assume by "it" you are referring to the SendKey function but specifying which WIL function or function you are using would be helpful.

In WIL string literals need to be quoted so to get TODAYI,82 you would simply use "TODAYI,82".  If TODAYI is a variable name or the contents of a WIL variable then the concatenation operator ( : ) or StrCat would be appropriate as suggested above.
