I have to automate a program that is outside of my control. The way I'm doing this is to use SendKeys.SendWait("keys") to the other program. The problem is, there are multiple fields that might be active and no way to select a single one with confidence. The fields are all different lengths, so my solution is to copy something really long, copy it to the clipboard, and look at the last character that made it though, so I know which field is selected in the other program. This overrides the clipboard, unfortunately.

By examining the clipboard, I see there is a FileGroupDescriptorW which seems to contain some information about the file. But I have not found how to use the information to grab the file and paste it.

View 6 RepliesI have an unmanaged DLL written in C++ and imported into my .NET application via <DLLImport ()> that I use to interface with a custom dos device driver. However, I'd like to either access the device directly or embed the DLL in my .NET application.
I've tried using Reflection.Assembly (see code below) to gain access to the embedded DLL, however, because it's unmanaged and there is no class to instantiate (CreateInstance fails), I cannot access it that way.Does anyone know of a way to embed this in my application and access it via reflection or some other means?
I am learning VB for the moment. I want to copy/paste code from a PDF to Visual Basic 2010 Exppress, but if i paste the (structured in PDF) code to VB, i get 1 long string of code and need to restructure it by entering after each line. Otherwise VB gives me a lot of errors. This is a time consuming work. Isn't there a way, VB puts the code in the right format?

I have a small copy/paste type of program. You put text in the boxes, click copy and it copies it to the clipboard. I have a text file attached to format the text when it is copied. what I want to accomplish is...If I don't fill in every single textbox with text, I don't want that particular field to show when I paste it. Example, I have the layout like below on the text document.
textbox1.
textbox2.
textbox3.
No matter what, when I click copy, the text document is going to copy textbox1,2,and 3. If I only put text in textbox 1 and 3, I don't want it to copy textbox2 if its empty.

how to paste the contents from clipboard to word dynamically in vb.net 2005
View 1 RepliesI want to include the clipboard from the menu strip of my MDI form, ie Cntrl/C and Cntrl/V. I need a more generic clipboard facility than the examples provided. I want to be able to copy from external programs, like Word, or controls within my program to either a Textbox, RichTextBox or whatever, of which there may be several, on a child form. In VB6 this was so simple, but I'm afraid it is proving frustrating, to say the least, in Visual Studio 2008. I have succeeded in getting data onto the clipboard from an external program, but my problem comes when trying to determine the active control on the child form to where I want to paste the data, so I know how to handle it.

Wanna make a copy to clipboard button, but it won't work. Well i have a TextBox and a Button, and i used the following code for that:
Clipboard.SetText(TextBox1.Text)
But i get this error then:

If I failed to copy clipboard I would wait 10 seconds and try again. Then it keeps failing.
However, if I try to debug the program or do any human stuff it gets fixed by it self. But I don't want human intervention.
