Hi Lim,
No you are the first person to report a problem like this with the TypeText function. I'd like to see if I can repro this. What OS are you running your tests on? What browser are you running your test in? What sort of application are you testing (HTML or Silverlight)? What type of control are you trying to type into? Is your website publicly accessible such that I can get to it and try to reproduce this problem?
Sincerely yours,
Cody

I'm using Win XP and testing on IE8 and this is for a Silverlight app. Unfortunately this is a private app. The control I'm trying to type into is a AutoComplete box. I am getting this control by using a FindName so it returns as a FrameworkElement and then I just use the User.TypeText method to enter the text.
Another odd thing I noticed was that although it wouldnt' type the "oo" and "nn" for Football and Tennis it would type "tt" for Tottenham.

After looking back and reviewing our code I manage to track down the code that was causing this problem. And it turns out to be a timing issue. If I slow down the keyPressTime a bit then all the characters are displayed.
To give you a bit more detail I was using TypeText against a AutoCompleteBox which would show filtered results after each letter was typed. The developer added a bit more logic to make the prediction better which must have caused an extra bit of delay. So by slowing down the keyPressTime from 100 to 300 everything worked fine.
Mystery solved. Hope this helps the others that are having this problem as well. And thank goodness for subversion and diff :)
