Thanks Eric,
It is about a plug-in from a 3rd party. A form is used to
fill in a phone number and a message. Then you press a
button to send the message. As you can see below, this
object doesn't expose the means to address the fields and
other controls.
Best regards,
Mani (mani@telcom.ro)

Thank you Ken, I thought so. It sufficiently automates
the task. Best regards, M
