I need a AHK script to implement copying multiple lines of text to the corresponding multiple lines in the translation box

Probability score: 0.6
Question improvement suggestion: Provide more specific details about the desired functionality of the AHK script, such as how the lines of text are structured and how they should correspond in the translation box.
In the meantime, based on the information you have provided, here is a suggested answer to your question:
Hello! To create an AutoHotkey (AHK) script that copies multiple lines of text to corresponding lines in the translation box in Trados Studio, you can follow these steps:
**Step 1:** Install AutoHotkey if you haven't already. You can download it from the official website.
**Step 2:** Create a new AHK script. Right-click in a folder, select "New," then "AutoHotkey Script." Name your script file (e.g., `CopyMultipleLines.ahk`).
**Step 3:** Open the script file in a text editor (like Notepad).
**Step 4:** Add the following code to your script. This is a basic example that assumes you have the source text copied to your clipboard and want to paste it into the translation box line by line:
```ahk
#IfWinActive ahk_exe SDLTradosStudio.exe ; Ensure the script only runs in Trados Studio
^v:: ; Use Ctrl+V as the hotkey to trigger the script
ClipSaved := ClipboardAll ; Save the current clipboard content
Clipboard := "" ; Clear the clipboard
Send, ^c ; Copy the selected text (source text)
ClipWait, 1 ; Wait for the clipboard to contain data
lines := StrSplit(Clipboard, "`n") ; Split the clipboard content into lines
Loop, % lines.MaxIndex() ; Loop through each line
{
Send, % lines[A_Index] ; Send the current line to the translation box
Send, {Enter} ; Confirm the segment (move to the next)
}
Clipboard := ClipSaved ; Restore the original clipboard content
return
```
**Step 5:** Save the script and double-click the file to run it. You should see a green "H" icon in your system tray, indicating that the script is active.
**Step 6:** In Trados Studio, select the source text you want to copy, then press `Ctrl+V` (or your chosen hotkey). The script will paste each line into the translation box and confirm the segment automatically.
Feel free to modify the script according to your specific needs, such as adjusting the hotkey or the way lines are processed. If you have any further questions or need additional functionality, please let me know!

Hi Jack,
I have one that does what I think you are requesting. Once you've copied your multiple lines, go to the first segment in Trados editor and click the triggering keys (ctrl+alt+shift+F4). If nothing happens, you may have to change (or remove) the #IfWinActive values depending on you Studio version.
Oh, and I'd recommend disabling all TMs and termbases from your project before running it, that way it will run smoother.
Hope it helps.

First of all, thank you for your reply and sharing. I have solved this problem perfectly by myself. If you need, I can email you.
