How to Sendkey + on the Numeric Keypad

Keywords: 	  Numeric Keypad

Question:

When I'm in the options-menu I have to send a +-key to open one of the menus. The Macro-Recorder saves that as a +.

I figured out that I have to use the + at the numeric keypad. The + at the alphanumeric keyboard don't work.

Any idea to get the + at the numeric keypad?

Answer:

Use
   Sendkey("{RIGHT}").
It works instead of plus.
Starting with version 98A of Winbatch, added additional special characters to the SendKey (and SendKeysTo and SendKeysChild) functions:
