User32.dll + SendKeys - Windows 7 Vs Windows Xp
Jun 20, 2012I have a small application I have developed to just put in some text into another applications input box, and it works perfectly!..... On windows 7. When I try to run the application the exact same way on windows xp the entire computer freezes for a little bit of time, then after it continues to run my application it doesn't insert any text to the applications textbox. I am not sure entierly what could cause this. Both are 32-bit and are running the same version of visual studio. Here is the code that I use. modApi.vb

SendKeys Working On Windows 7 But Not XP Pro?
Sep 10, 2010I have an application that I want to load using the scheduler in windows. I am also wanting the "enter" key pressed when the app loads. Because you cannot use a batch file I tried using a vb app. It works great on two different windows 7 machines but not at all on the xp machines. The xp machines load the app but don't follow through with the sendkey.
Sidenote - I had to repeat the sendkey function in order to get this to work because I am not sure how to use the sendkeys.sendwait function. I tried and it never worked.

View 1 RepliesVS 2010 : Difference Between SendKeys.SendWait And SendKeys.Send?
Jul 28, 2009What 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 10 RepliesSendKeys Underlying API Or API Equivalent To SendKeys?
Dec 1, 2009I'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 3 RepliesSending BMP Logo To Printer For Storage
Feb 28, 2009I would like to ask a question about sending a BMP logo to a printer for storage. As I used to send a txt file to the printer, I just read through the file and store the contents of the file in an string. After sending the string to the COM port connecting the printer with "ComPort.Write(msg)", the txt file can be successfully printed. When dealing with the printing image problem, I tried to read the image with a binary reader and store into a binary array. Then I write the binary array to the COM port connecting the printer, with "ComPort.Write(bitArray, 0, bitArray.Length)". I am still quite new for VB.

Looking For A Alternative To SendKeys?
Jun 8, 2010So 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}")

Sendkeys Or An Alternative?
Aug 30, 2010First 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.
