I have this peice of code , I copied it from other sample scripts and modified as needed.
Issue is i cant get it to drop into the second part
I have tried else , elif, if not with no luck.

              ##else:
                if objNewTab.Screen.WaitForString("# ") :
                        objNewTab.Screen.Send(chr(13))
