Ok, type() (not only because see faq 933) is not the right function to
fill in forms.

I always use paste() to fill in forms (this in fact uses the clipboard).
I only use type to trigger functional keys. paste() even is able to talk
unicode, when using the unicode string notation u"some unicode string".

some people use for example the module xlrd, which makes it possible to
directly read Excel sheets and use paste() to input to the form.

You might already experienced, that sometimes you have to be careful
with timing: a short wait of less than 0.5 seconds after a type(Key.TAB)
to jump to the next input field in many cases helps to make the workflow
robust.
