[CONNECT VBA] Sendkeyin

Question

This part of code crashes CE. Is it only for me? 
 Sub place_text()
CadInputQueue.SendCommand "place text"
 CadInputQueue.sendkeyin "sometext"
End Sub

Thank you for reporting this issue. I have filed Defect 620571 to be considered for inclusion into a future version release. To work-around this behavior as RodWing suggested, please consider using the MicroStation VBA object model functionality related to creating text.

It is an issue regressed in U2 and is in U3. We had found it earlier but fix failed to make it in U3 for valid reasons. As I mentioned above, this has been fixed in WIP builds of U4. 
 
As a work around for now, you can use text editor or can record text placement script using text editor. 
 
CadInputQueue.SendKeyin "TEXTEDITOR PLACE" 
CadInputQueue.SendKeyin "TEXTEDITOR PLAYCOMMAND INSERT_TEXT ""something""" 
 
Or you can use VBA object model as RoadWing and Robert mentioned. 
 
In our reply, we haven't mentioned anything on removal / replacement. Please take a note on this.
