Well, thanks Johan. I'ld like you to point to 
http://sourceforge.net/p/keepass/discussion/329221/thread/9c53a52b/?limit=25#b659 
where I say in the last post but one I got it working. And it did for quite a 
while. It 'suddenly' stopped however.
(I had this freezing of windows which is mentioned there but that is gone 
now).
I am not sure but I think the auto type function started to fail after an 
update of my system. I know I had some trouble getting xdotool to work which 
is needed for KeePass to work according to 
http://keepass.info/help/v2/setup.html. I am sorry I am not a real expert, 
but I do try to understand how things work. I visited your site and it seems 
you know a lot more about "this" than me.
