Answer 1

Hi

The above method which jose has suggested, i made little changes to the code it worked for me. Jus replace TypeText by AppendText for entering the second value.

WatiN.Core.IE ie = new WatiN.Core.IE();

TextField txtChoices = ie.TextField(Find.ById("ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_TxtChoices"));

txtChoices.TypeText("NotBad");

System.Windows.Forms.SendKeys.SendWait("{ENTER}");

txtChoices.AppendText("VeryGood");

Answer 2

Here is another answer for the problem. When i passed enter key there it was giving a "Keyword delimiter is missing" error so instead i passe "\r\n" it worked fine.

WatiN.Core.IE ie = new WatiN.Core.IE():

TextField txtChoices = ie.TextField(Find.ById("ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_TxtChoices"));

txtChoices.TypeText("NotBad");

System.Windows.Forms.SendKeys.SendWait("\r\n");

txtChoices.AppendText("VeryGood");

System.Windows.Forms.SendKeys.SendWait("\r\n");

txtChoices.AppendText("Awesome");
