sending event

[Dayne]

How do I send a mouse or keyboard event(vb.net) without touch(using) either?

Dayne,

The result from a mouse of a keyboard event will be an action. (method)
Therefore why do you not just call that action.

Just my thought,

Keyboard events: 'SendKeys.Send' .

Mouse events/keyboard events: P/invoke on 'mouse_event'/'keybd_event' or
'SendInput'.

Re: sending event


I am getting the following error when using "SendKey". Any idead?

A first chance exception of type 'System.Invalid OperationExcept ion'
occurred in system.windows. forms.dll

Additional information: SendKeys cannot run inside this application
because the application is not handling Windows messages. Either change
the application to handle messages, or use the SendKeys.SendWa it method.

Re: sending event


I tried using SendKeys.SendWa it("A") to set the "Last input value" .. it
doesn't work. Any idea?

Re: sending event

What clock tick count? What clock?

SendKeys is the same as setting the focus to a windows text element on
another application, and typing into it.

It's very unreliable, and a hack at best. Any window at any time can take
the focus, and receive the SendKeys.

Re: sending event

Could you expand a little on sending say, MouseDown event...what's the exact
syntax? Thanks for help.
