    java.awt.Robot - Stimulate Key Press Not Working

    Dear All,

    I had google for example how to use java.awt.Robot class. I also read Java Document regarding of awt.Robot class. When I test below code, I get error message "cannot find symbol method delay(int)" and "cannot find symbol method keyPress (int)". May I know what is my problem?

    *Installed JDK Version 6 update 21

    Code:
    import java.awt.AWTException;
import java.awt.Robot;
import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;

public class MyRobot
{
    public static void main (String [] args)
    {
        try {
            MyRobot myrobot = new MyRobot();
            
            myrobot.delay(3000);
            myrobot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_T);
            myrobot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_E);
            myrobot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_S);
            myrobot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_K);
            
        } catch (AWTException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

      Code:
      import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
      And

      Code:
      Robot myrobot = new Robot();

          Dear Ian Smith,

          I try your solution and it works! The main issue in my code is:

          //Incorrect code
          MyRobot myrobot = new MyRobot();

          //Correct code
          Robot myrobot = new Robot();
