VS 2008 Need A SendMessage / PostMessage Example
Dec 13, 2009Can anyone give me a SendMessage/PostMessage Example? I want to make SendMessage/PostMessage work like SendKeys, except instead of sending keys to the app in focus, it will send keys to a certain app. I've looked at a lot of examples that use notepad, but they all need to use "find" the "EDIT" thing. I dont want that. Is there any other way?

View 1 RepliesClick Within A Window Using SendMessage Or PostMessage
Dec 23, 2008I am launching an external that brings up a window that is split into two frames. I am able to get the handle of the frame and what I want to do is click inside the frame in a certain area.
For example, if I open "System Information" by launching msinfo32.exe, how would I click on Internet Settings in the left window pane? I don't need the exact coordinates, just an explanation of how it can be done using SendMessage or PostMessage.
I've tried things like:
PostMessage(sideWnd, WM_LBUTTONDOWN, 200, 1200)
PostMessage(sideWnd, WM_LBUTTONUP, 200, 1200)
I wasn't sure if the end two numbers would be coordinates, but if they are, I've tried different numbers and can't seem to get it to click anything other than the first item in the list of the left window frame.
Using PostMessage/SendMessage To Reposition A Form?
Nov 10, 2010We have a form that is saved to the system tray and can be viewed in one of two ways.One view is like a rectangle and the other view is more of a square. In either case, there is a MaximumSize set on the form. We would like to use WindowState to toggle between the two by allowing the user to click the Maximize / Restore icons in the title bar.The problem is that when the user clicks the Maximize icon, the form jumps to the upper left corner of the screen. This is logical, since a maximized form should be anchored to the upper left. But in our case, the MaximumSize property prevents it from fully maximizing. The actual size is around 800 by 400. If they then click the Restore icon for the second view, it jumps back down to the original location.

Apr 27, 2011First of all, is it even remotely possible to have PostMessage or SendMessage "press keys" inside of a Fullscreen game? I.e. use the Chat? (Requires the user to activate the chat box, type in the message, then send it, which is all done with the keyboard)
I've tried many different ways using WM_KEYDOWN and WM_CHAR, and nothing worked.
[Code]...
I am trying to get it to activate the user's chat by pressing enter, type in the text, then press enter again. Except, I would like for the game to be minimized and allow this to work. Or, if while the game was running in fullscreen, that I was able to use SendMessage or PostMessage to type text into a Command Prompt Window.

Jul 23, 2009I'm trying to send a key stroke to one application, through PostMessage. I am using too Spy++ to try to understand how to send the message, as I do not fully understand its inner workings. In this picture, the first item(selected item) was made with an actual key stroke made by myself. The one with a red elipse around it(below) was made with the following code:

I guess it must have something to do with the last PostMessage() parameter, but I can't figure out how it really works.

View 2 RepliesCommunications :: Send 8-10 Character Strings From The PC Serial Port?
Dec 1, 2011I have quite a bit of VB6 experience but now am trying to create my first VB.Net project. The project is very simple - it just needs to send 8-10 character strings from the PC serial port. The problem I'm seeing is that VB.Net is always sending out a 0x0A character after each 'WriteLine' call. Using VB6 it was necessary to manually send out any End Of Line characters. My application requires that no extra EOL characters be sent after the string.
