I was wondering if it is possible to perform a "mouse"-click without being in the form, like I got this program clicking on certain locations and I would like to use the computer to other stuff in the same time but the mouse keeps going to the location on the screen. I need way to perform a click without using the mouse cursor.

I am currently developing a small capture system program. What I intend to do is to create a hot key for my program to capture image (press F8 then it will invoke a button to click automatically). What I manage to do for the time being is only registerHotkey procedure. (Please refer to the coding below). I am unable to create a hot key which perform like a button click.
This is just a testing program: I have 2 forms specifically. Form1 with a button and form2 with a picture box.
I would like to run this program where I can just simply click F8(for instance) instead of clicking the button.
For the time being I am able to run this program and put it in the system tray when I minimize/closed it. When I click F9 the program will pop up again. What I would like to do now, is clicking F8 (for instance and the program able to click a button from form 1 automatically). I had used PerformClick but still unable to do so.

How to perform a mouse click using VB 2008?
View 3 RepliesI have a button on a datagridview (dgproducts)that when clicked, sends the data from that row to another datagridview called (DgSelectedProducts) in a Keypress. The button on dgproducts is unbound and is (0) and is named AddProductsButton in the collection. I am using a barcode scanner into txtboxsearchbarcodeID so that when the user enters the barcode to the textbox it finds the barcode in the dgproducts it filters down to that item.
When I say filter I mean all the items that do not match are not shown on the dgproducts datagridview. Only a single item can match. That part works ok. The problem that I am having is that I do not know how to perform a click on the cell(0) ie addproductsbutton so that the item is passed from the dgproducts to the dgselectedproducts when the item is scanned. This is for a POS form so it needs to do this.
Private Sub txtBarcodeSearch_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles txtBarcodeSearch.KeyPress
' If e.Handled = Keys.Enter Then
txtSearchTerm.Text = txtBarcodeSearch.Text
Me.CBOProducts.DisplayMember = "ProductIDBarcode"
cmbSearchField.Text = "ProductIDBarcode"

I have the following code which inserts a record at a time, instead I want to insert all the records at ago instead of calling the routine by clicking a button to insert a record a time. Presently, if I have 3 records I have to click the button 3 times to manage to insert all the records. I want to perform only one click to insert all 3 records.I have a For statement but it seems it's NOT doing it.

[code]
btnAdd.PerformClick()
DirectCast(My.Application.OpenForms("record"), record).btnAdd.PerformClick()

View 4 RepliesI have small application which shows an alert in every 45 mins....( to take a break from work :) )..... It is a normal windows form with a timer in it and in every 45 mins I am invoking a message box. I am able to make it work but the problem is that when the application is minimized, the message box is not popping up, it stays with in the parent form (minimized). How can I bring it up to the user focus?
View 4 RepliesI have a 2nd form that is minimized to the taskbar, I can click on the tab and the form opens and shows all of the data fine, but
From the main form, I am maximizing the second form and trying to pass a value to a toolstrip textbox on the second form then press a button on the toolstrip from the second form, I can get this to work fine, but where I am having a problem is
The button searches through a treeview, when I step through my code, I can see the value that I am passing, my code does execute, but the treeview is showing no nodes(but they are really there). At the begining of the code, I put a message box to give me a count of the nodes in the treeview, it shows 0, but I can see all 10000+ nodes. What the textbox is on the toolstrip is a search box. When the form is maximized, I can enter whatever and it finds it with no problems, but if I pass a value it doesnt find anything because the treeview is saying there are no nodes when there is.
I've got this little 'Sticky Notes' type of application and the form I have is a borderless, taskbarless form and for Windows 2000 compatability I'm using VS 2008 and targeting the 2.0 framework. One of the hurdles I have is that in XP, Vista & 7 when you click the Show Desktop button all of my note's windows get minimized and without a taskbar icon, it's not easy to get them back (at least not for a normal user) & I'm looking for a way to either right after the windows minimize I just have them all show again or if I can skip the minimizing message in the wndproc altogether
I've put together a test app that'll show the messages in a listbox for the form, but I'm not sure how to go about skipping sending the message to the form's base class. Here's a snippet, listMessages is the listbox on the form[code]...

I am in the process of creating an all-in-one application for my own purposes. This application has panels with different "Mini-apps" inside of each. Timer, Notepad, Calculator, etc... The top of the application is a drop down menu and each of the drop downs has "Minimize" and "Maximize" for the appropriate application. When the minimize function for a "mini-app" is clicked, then that application is not visible. When maximize is clicked, the the application reappears.What I am attempting to accomplish is that when, for example, the two lower panels are minimized then the form resizes to only show the top two application.Basically, its like rows. If the two bottom are not visible, then the application should resize to fit nicer. An example of this type of application would be Windows Calculator (found in Windows 7 systems and probably other OS).[code]

View 4 RepliesI have a filter that is used to populate a grid view and the url will conain: /example/grid?value1=1&value2=2
It will then have a link to page 2, which allows them to edit something.I then want them to click a link that will send them back to the gridview under the same parameters of: /example/grid?value1=1&value2=2
Is this possible? How do I hold on and fill in the URL values so it knows how to refill the grid view accordingly?
Is there a way to control the size of a minimized MDI form. When I minimize a child form, it apprears at the bottom with the form buttons (minimize, restore and maximize) and just about 2 or 3 characters of the Title Text. I would like to have more of the title text showing so the user can figure out what window he wants to restore if he has a couple of them minimized. If not that, is there a way to have a "tooltip" popup when I move the mouse over the minimized form.
