The application I am working with ignores the ALT key and just sends the 1 Keys because they are being sent too fast. I need to know if there is a way to slow down the Rate at which it sends the keys to something like 50ms?
View 11 RepliesWhat is the difference between SendKeys.SendWait and SendKeys.Send?Send obviously will just send they key immediately, but does SendWait actually wait for the message to be processed or does it also send it immediately?The function's name itself is just confusing. Which one should I use if I want to send keystrokes to a 3rd party app immediately, or is there no difference? To me, a few milliseconds is a big difference.

View 1 Repliesis there a way to increase the rate a Process object in .NET throws the OutputDataReceived event? It creates a large buffer (I believe 1024 characters) that is dumped in bulk which makes the application not as fluid of a stream as I would of like it to be.

Now as you can see it is sending the textbox1 text and then pressing enter then sending textbox2 text! Theres quite a few problems in that but before i discuss note: This code is in a Timer. Problem #1: It does not send the keys fully correct all the time because its trying to send them all at once! So i want it to send them 1 letter after the other with 200 ms sleep in them! Problem #2: The sleep is not working: The reason i know is because even after it did the first textbox1 text it didnt wait that 2000 ms!
I am trying to send keys to a control on my form. But I am getting a NullReferenceException and I don't know why. The code is about as basic as it gets: [Code] The error reported is object reference not set to an instance of an object but Send is a shared method so doesn't need an instance. Strangely if I ignore the error it works fine and F4 is passed to the control. I know there was an issue with sendkeys and UAC but I thought this had been solved (I am using 4.0 framework).
View 1 RepliesI'm making an auto-typer and I need it to only send one line of a multi-lined textbox at a time. It looks like this right now;
If Label1.Text = "1" Then
SendKeys.Send(TextBox2.Text)
SendKeys.Send("{Enter}")
Thread.Sleep(TextBox13.Text)
Timer2.Enabled = False
End If
I want the Textbox2.text to be entered one line at a time and then to sleep for the desired time.
How can I have a time out between every key I send ?

I don't want to use the sleep method, or to put each code under a timer ... Anything else that I could use?

I cannot find any solutions so far using the MSDN search, so I'll just ask the question here. I am trying to make a "bot" so to speak for a game that I play so that I can automate movements and macros. I've never used Sendkeys method yet until today so I am very unfamiliar except for the articles I have seen on the MSDN.
Basically, the game I play I can manually set macro keys like spacebar to perform task. What I want to do is have my application automate this process on a timed basis. Like, every 2 seconds send the key of spacebar to the other application (MapleStory.exe).

This is my first post of your forum, and I'm very excited to see what there is to learn in here :-) But first i have a problem with auto program for a java chat. I want it to select the window by it self, and send the keys of a textbox, this is what i got so far:
[Code]...
I'm using the function sendkeys.send(). I'm using it in a cell of a grid because everytime I write a letter, I deactivate an activate the control, and when this happens the whole text is selected, and I want the cursor to be placed at the end of the text. In order to to this, I use: SendKeys.Send("{end}") It usually works fine, but when I'm pressing the shift key to write capital letters, it doesn't work. I've tried to send other keys with that function while pressing the shift key. If i use
SendKeys.Send("a")
I get an A, like when I use
SendKeys.Send("A")
Should I disable the keyboard input before using the sendkeys instruction, and how should I do it?
How can I speed up a process? I see I should use timegettime, gettickcount, and queryperformance counter, but I have no clue where to start.
I guess you can call it Frame Rate or Refresh Rate of a process?
i am trying to indicate if the tax is at single rate (18%) or the family rate of (15%)This is what i got so far i could do the rest but just cant do the Mstatus part.

The problem is whenever it sends the text to another forum using the hotkey it works fine, But if the GrpTxt1 text contains the hotkey name it spams it it because the key is sending over and over again because it contains "A" the hotkey in the text.
here is the code
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
SendKeys.Send(TextBox1.Text)
SendKeys.Send("( )")

I have developed a VB.NET (VS2005) application that performs a dependency check of VBA code to see where a selected procedure was called from. I want to add the facility to launch an application and to load the selected procedure into it's edit window. I can launch the application and, using sendkeys, I can open the application window, and the final thing is to use SendKeys to insert the function name. Now, here is the problem. Where the finction name contains parentheses, they get stripped out by SendKeys. For example where a function name is of the form "Scriptxyz(1)", then sendkeys sends the value "Scriptxyz1" to the application. I have the script name defined as a string and am using SendKeys(strName). How can I stop SendKeys from stripping out the parentheses?
