I'm trying to send Ctrl+A to Notepad but nothing is happening. Code for the button:

What 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 3 RepliesPrivate Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
CheckBox1.Checked = True
While CheckBox1.Checked = True
SendKeys("{END}")
End While
End Sub
That is the code, the error is "SendKeys is a type and cannot be used as an expression."
I'm looking for the underlying Win32 API call that the DotNET Framework invokes on a SendKeys.Send or .SendWait call, or a Win32 API Equivalent to SendKeys. I've already experimented with SetKeyboardState which seems like the way to go, except that it does not raise any kind of keyboard event that causes the set keystates to register with an active application or the OS (at least not until another key is pressed; for example I can meddle with the keyboardstate before events process on a natural keystroke, but I can't invoke a keystroke programmatically).
View 1 RepliesI have a VB.Net 2.0 application, on my form I am using a Component ONE PDF reader control.I am trying to send to this control a F4 keystoke to close the navigation panel when it opens the PDF file. It is not working or not accepting the sendkey.I put focus on the control first. Code below:
Me.PDF1.Focus()
Me.PDF1.Select()
My.Computer.Keyboard.SendKeys("{F4}", True)
I have tried different variations of the Sendkeys with no success.
When using Sendkeys with vb.net, is it possible to tell if the target of the Sendkeys has changed between sendings?

I think what I'm trying to do is considered a permutation but I could be wrong. I've come across several examples of how to permutate a string as follows:
Permutations of {A B C}: {A B C}, {A C B}, {B A C}, {B C A}, {C A B}, {C B A}
What I'm needing are results similar to this (using the same input) with a repeat of each item to create a list of all possible combinations: {A A A}, {A A B}, {A A C}, {A B A}, {A B B}, {A B C}, {A C A}, {A C B}, {A C C}...and so on.
Below is some code that I found that almost gets me there with an exception of the repeated values:
'Generates all possible combinations from a series of words
Public Function PermutateString(ByVal input_string As List(Of String), Optional ByVal Base As String = "") As List(Of String)
Dim i As Long

How can I bind a key combination to my vb.net application? I know it has SOMETHING to do with the registry, but I have no earthly idea what or how to go about doing this. I want the user to be able to hit those keys when the app is open and have it execute my function, but not while the app is closed.

View 7 RepliesI am writing an application in which we have a Product Module, Now instead of defining individual products, we want to just state the Size Ranges in Width, height and different size scale available, and then automatically generate a list of products with all the Size combinations. I cant figure how to do this.Ill give an example.This is how we define a product

If i had a fixed number of Size types i would just run For loops within for loops and inside the inner most for loop write an Add Item statement with Index of evry selected item, however since the Size types are dynamic, i need to write a recursive loop, and i just cant figure how to.
My task is to develop a Control library (VB 2005) in which u enter a variable in textbox (>=1 , <=5). Lets say you enter "3" then u have too see in table all combinations of boolean numbers for 3bits (000, 001, 010 .....etc). If you enter "4" the table have to be different (0000,0001,....etc) with 16 combinations.

I was wondering how to achieve a list with all possible combinations of letters. Now there are some nice examples on the Internet, however, I'd like to have the following:
Let's assume you have 3 letters (A, B, C), and have a limit length of 3, then it should display this list:
A
B
C
AA
[Code].....
Now, this would be fine with recursive calls I think, but I find it really difficult to think how to code that and how the computer will execute the code. It would be easier if all possibilities had a length of 3, but here that isn't the case.
Example :
If a got word "don" then file will contain
ddd
ddo

I want to create an algorithm or formula that gives me the following combinations below. I have manually printed out all the combinations for the example containing 4 tables with respective values.
This is not permutation because i need the combinations to always follow the unique format [code]...
I would like a function generate all of the k-combinations of elements from a List of n elements. Note that I am looking for combinations, not permutations, and that we need a solution for varying k (i.e., hard-coding the loops is a no-no).
I am looking for a solution that is a) elegant, and b) can be coded in VB10/.Net 4.0.
This means a) solutions requiring LINQ are ok, b) those using the C# "yield" command are not.
The order of the combinations is not important (i.e., lexicographical, Gray-code, what-have-you) and elegance is favored over performance, if the two are in conflict.
(The OCaml and C# solutions here would be perfect, if they could be coded in VB10.)

Any way to get the different combinations depending on the Checked checkboxes into an ArrayList. One entry per possible combination (like the example above). Note this example is just for 3 games, I will have 13 games in my program so if you click all checkboxes thats 1,6M combinations. Is it really wise to have 1,6M entries in an Array? I also want to be able to set demands, like: delete all lines in the Array containing two X. Maybe an ArrayList isn't the way to go?
Using VBNET, MVC 3 and Entity Framework to write my first mvc application - a single user blog application. I am trying to create an archive sidebar that will render something like October 2011 and when the user clicks they will see all posts in october. Right now all my attempts show either duplicate dates - if there are 3 posts in october then i see october 2011 3 times or i only get back one month year combo say oct 2011. Using groupby with firstordefault i only get back one month yaear combo.
posts = _rdsqlconn.Posts.Where(Function(p) p.PostIsPublished = True).GroupBy(Function(d) d.PostDatePublished).FirstOrDefault
How can i get back unique month year combos with EF?
Additional info: I have that function in my repository. I want to pull the month and year pairs so that i have only one pair for say ocotober even if there are 3 posts in october.In the repository:

I have 36 numbers in sets of 5. (eg. 1-2-3-4-5, 2-3-4-5-6 etc..) I need to find all the possible combinations of these numbers which total the same sum. For instance the lowest sum would be: 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 15. The highest possible sum is: 32 + 33 + 34 + 35 + 36 = 170. Now every five number combination within these 36 numbers will sum up between 15 and 170. How would I go about this in vb.net to produce all the possible combinations which would total say 92.

This question is virtually the same as this SO post, only I'm looking for a VB.NET (.NET 4) solution. I've spun my wheels long enough trying to come up with a generic solution to solving this "power set" problem.
Dim choices As IEnumerable(Of String) = {"Coffee", "Tea", "Milk", "Cookies"}
Dim choiceSets = choices.CombineAll()
I'm looking for choiceSets to be an IEnumerable(Of IEnumerable(Of T)) so that I can do something like:
For each choiceSet in choiceSets
Console.WriteLine(String.Join(", ", choiceSet))
Next
[code]...
As you can see, this is every non-repeating combination from the source IEnumerable(Of T) (which could have 1 to many items in it - this example only had 4), it operates based on the order of the items in the source IEnumerable(Of T), and each item in the list is >= the previous item in terms of number of items in the inner IEnumerable(Of T).
For what it's worth, this is not homework; though it sure does feel like it. EDIT: Updated the example so it does not look like the result is alphabetically sorted, to stress that the source IEnumerable(Of T)'s existing order is used and added a 4th choice to clarify the sorting requirement within each set.
I need to generate all combinations (not permutations) in VB .NET, I've been search and all I found is for permutations (some says combinations but when I was try it, all are permutations).
What I need is to generate combinations from string array:
Dim data_array As String() = {"one", "two", "three", "four", "five", "six"}
I need that: If I say just 1 length, it must returns:
one
two
three
four
five
six
If I say 2 length, it must returns:
oneone
onetwo
onethree
onefour
... etc ...
twoone
twotwo
twothree
... etc ...
And continues til end with all combinations. If I say more length do it as well.

I need to learn how to write a program to "calculate" all the possible combinations.
