VS 2008 SendKeys.Send() Method Does Not Send The Keys Fully Correct All The Time
Nov 9, 2009
[Code]....
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).

As you may see it is a "flooder", and i am just playing around with the program, evrything worked, until i did want to try it on msn, and i have to use the "enter" or "return" button. to send the text.insted of "pressing" the enter button and send it, it just writes the number 43? it is this line that i have problems with "SendKeys.Send(Keys.Enter)"

I'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.

I want to send { and } signs to the Active window in Visual Basic 2010.But the problem is when we send a key like "Backspace" we send it as "{BS}".So it also contains the { & } signs.Therefore when we send { and } signs nothing happen.

I am trying to use the send keys function to send text to another program.I ahve gotten it al working well, except for using () as I know sendkeys doesnt like these.I have tried using the Replace function in several places in my code to replace the ( with {(} and {+0} etc, with various other options tried.But when I run the program, it seems to skip this out completly and leaves them in the string as (, and therefore it errors and wont run.When I step through it, it goes through the function but doesnt alter the strng as it should. This is the code to send the string and my attempt at making it replace the () in the module
Module TextReplacement
Private Declare Function GetAsyncKeyState Lib "user32.dll" (ByVal vKey As Int32) As Short
Dim counter As Integer
Dim sData() As String

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.

I tried a couple of the send keys and they will not send any keys at all. I need a true Space bar input (SendKeys does not work for me). Also, I would like this to work on 32 and 64 bit computers. Let me know if you know of any good examples. I would love to have the ability to send a string in the future, but I can add that feature myself. [code]

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).

I have been trying to make a IM spammer (Yes, before you flame this is not a 4 item spammer with a start/stop and 1 timer and 1 text box.) I have been testing methods to "expand" the term "IM Spammer" when people mention VB with it. While I have doing many small things (Just some simple add-ons etc. etc.) thats not important. I have been trying to go back to basics and edit some "SendKeys.Send" code. currently I have been useing the basic...

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?

Okay so this is my code.

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.

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?

I 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?
