ControlSend case of text inconsistent

[multiades@…]

This was reported previously, but it was closed 2 years ago as "no bug". There definitely is a bug, and it's causing problems with a script. This code is used to enter a directory into an open dialog:

ControlSend("Import", "", "[CLASS:Edit; INSTANCE:1]", $directory)

the problem occurs when it is where it is supposed to enter:

"d:\directory\anotherdirectory\file.dat"

but instead enters:

"d;\directory\anotherdirectory\file.dat"

or

"d:|directory|anotherdirectory|file.dat"

The result is an invalid directory/file reference. Entry works correctly most of the time, but when it doesn't it causes a major error in the script. I have tried changing the key delay and keydown delay as follows, with no apparent improvement in accuracy:

AutoItSetOption ("sendkeydelay", 10)
AutoItSetOption ("sendkeydowndelay", 10)

Previous report was: ​http://www.autoitscript.com/trac/autoit/ticket/1535

I am not using a non-english keyboard layout, as was cited in the other bug report.

Thanks,

You provided a script to reproduce the issue about as useful as the scripts 2 years ago. In other words, this is pointless. We can't reproduce it and the code looks fine on our end.
