View 1 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.

CheckBox1.Checked = True
While CheckBox1.Checked = True
SendKeys("{END}")

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 developed a very simple little windows program in VB 2005 to be used on desktops here at HQ. It reads a table from an Oracle DB into an array, let's the user select a text file, and then uses that data and text file to create an Excel spreadsheet.
Now they want a remote user to have access to it. We use Citrix for our remote application access. There is no install, I just copy the code to the Citrix server so I didn't need to put terminal server in install mode. When I am on the Citrix server, the application runs well. When I access the application through Citrix, I get an Oracle error from the ODBC data manager: Data source name not found and no default driver specified.
Does anybody know what is going on? how to make it work?
Are there any papers related to Windows applications on Citrix server that can help?
The vb.net code:Dim fs2 As Object fs2 = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
gets an error when I try to make an executable file out of this program and run it via citrix server.
The error is, the executable file won't run at all. When I try to run this locally, there are no errors at all.
I have a treeview dragdrop event written in VS2003. It works perfectly fine when the application is running on desktop, until we move the application to Citrix. So, users are now running it off from Citrix, the DragDrop event doesn't work anymore. It doesn't even have the effects of allowing dropping.
View 3 RepliesI'm looking for an API/function I can call to determine if software is running on Citrix, Terminal Services, or a stand-alone PC. Optimally, it would work something like this: [code]I would prefer something that worked from an API call as opposed to looking at something in the registry as we're having more and more customers that are locking down the registry.
View 3 RepliesI am connecting to Citrix database using SQL-defined ODBC. Having a problem with it. I am updating an existing application that uses the ODBC in SQL, and it connects fine. However, that database connection is secured, only available on the production side. The test side has a remote connection. I am attempting to change the remote connection values to match the parameters of the SQL-based ODBC, but the labels are different, and it doesn't seem to match. Specifically, I don't think I'm getting the DataSource correct. Also, it can't find the username and password that I use to log into the remoter connection - I get an error message "Invalid authorization specification".

I 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?
View 1 RepliesAn application loaded on a citrix server executes with no problem. When we try to run the same program files on a virtual server, we get silent errors and we do not even see the application window appear. The program runs for a moment in task manager, but then closes down. BTW other .net apps run on the virtual server. Here is the error we see in the event viewer application logs[code]...

I have an WPF full screen application and I configured Skype´s "Focus Skype" Hotkey to Ctrl+F6 combination.
How can I send this message to windows (Ctrl+F6)? I tried by sendkeys but is not working, it says that: 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.SendWait method."
I tried Sendkeys.sendwait method but it minimized my full screen application and I need it remains full screen.

So I've been doing a lot of reading today and apparently SendKeys isn't very reliable anymore.Does anyone know of another alternative to it for what I need:
The application works by the form being positioned over a open window, notepad, word, excel etc and it then determines what it is over, notepad, word, excel etc and then reads the file, and does some processing using SendKeys at the moment.Though I do believe I could probably change the later at some point. The problem I'm having right now is when I try to send the Alt + Tab to change focus it's working roughly 12% of the time.If you are wondering I ran it 50 times and it worked 6 of those,thus the 12%.I'm thinking that is rather unacceptable.This is what I'm using which should work: SendKeys.SendWait("%{TAB}")

What this code does is send the keys "abc" to a process called Halo.exe. The problem is that sometimes the keys don't send and I need to add a sleep command before the keys are sent. How can I make my app always send the keys and make it so I dont have to use a sleep command.Don't Be Scared To Ask,
I'm using vb.net 2005 and trying to get a old vb 6 app upgraded that uses sendKeys. I'm using:
SendKeys.SendWait("%{TAB}")
which should be the proper text for Alt+Tab, anyone else having a similar problem or know of another way to get this to work?
First off, using VB2010. I'm in the process of upgrading some applications from VB6 to 2010 and haveing a great time of it. The current application I'm working on is using Sendkeys of which I have changed over to the WSH.Sendkeys of which is pretty decent. Basically the program is copy and pasting the current open file, reading some data and saving it as a different file type. It also has to change xls files to csv and then saving it to the format as well as a smiliar thing with word. Thus the reason for the copy and paste as it's changing the extension to a dot date (for example, test.830).This is the flow of how it works for a text file (most basic)
1. changes focus to notepad
2. Select all Copy to ClipBoard
3. Open Programmers File Editor and a blank file
4. Paste in text
5. Save as code.date extension to the directory
Excel files obviously have a few extra steps.
I've been developing applications in VB 6 for many years. For a long while now I've not been developing and I switched over to Windows 7. Now I've been asked to build a trainer so I moved over to VB.net 2010 and I'm struggling to make the transition. Anyhow I'm stuck with this trainer.I've been asked by many players of an online game to create an application that serves as a trainer for leveling up characters. I've been personally approached by some of the guilds also. This is an MMORPG so instead of running around for hours, the trainer simulates the keyboard key 1 being pressed which is the attack button. So the character attacks monsters automatically until you stop the trainer. In this way you can leave the game running in the background and do other work.This small project has got me really excited in working in vb 2010 and to me it's a small kick start. I haven't done anything like this is Vb6, it was more database orientated and educational game software I was developing. So I'm clueless in this area.
It doesn't really work. If I activate the ingame chatbox it returns 1 and 49 respectively into the text area but doesn't activate the "attack" command even if the chatbox is deactivated. I'm guessing it's not sending the keyboard press event but instead sending a string?
Im trying to use SendKeys to an invisible cmd(that i open in the program), but I can not get it to work. it just sends the text to the program that is active. is there any way to send a specific program I'm using Visual Basic Express editor 2008th

To do this I run my vb program and minimize it, so that the application I want to send the words to have focus.Now I've tried sendkeys, but it seems sendkeys only sends my first word and does nothing with the other words. The code below is called 4 times by the main form
If i > 3 Then i = 0
i = i + 1
If i = 1 Then verhaal ="some text 1"[code]....

I was looking for something send keystrokes and I found this helpful routine SendKeys that I can use in a VB Script. I wanted to have "Right Control Key + (Scroll Lock & Scroll Lock)" sent to the machine. Essentially, having the Right Control Key pressed, I need Scroll Lock pressed twice. Here is what I tried:
set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.SendKeys"^({SCROLLLOCK}{SCROLLLOCK})"
I am trying to emulate the press of any of the arrow keys using the sendkeys class, I know that enter would be
