Pressing keyboard keys (Esc, Enter)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Operating system : Win7
.Net Framework version : 2.0.7045
Office Version : 2003
SeleniumWrapper version : 1.0.11.0

Please could you provide sample VBA code, that will simulate physically 
pressing keyboard keys (ESc, Enter) and possibly also instruction how other 
keys can be pressed.

There you go :

Dim selenium As New SeleniumWrapper.WebDriver
Dim Keys As New SeleniumWrapper.Keys
selenium.Start "firefox", "http://www.google.com"
selenium.Open "search?q=eiffel+tower"

selenium.SendKeys Chr(9) // ascii code for escape
Or
selenium.SendKeys Keys.Escape  // Send escape to the active element
Or
selenium.findElementById("id").SendKeys Keys.Enter  'Send enter to the element

To close a windows popup, you first have to to use the switchToWindow command.
Then you can try to send the escape key :

selenium.switchToWindow "windows-name"
selenium.sendKeys Keys.Escape

For the "id=x-auto-32", you can use a CSS selector with partial id :
selenium.findElementByCssSelector("a[id^=x-auto-]").click
