i have a program called Vip Task Manager.This program lets me set up task which others have to complete.When they are done with a task they have to mark it "completed" and make a report on what they have done and used to perform this task.Vip Task Manager has a button which directs them to an upload form, now when they press the "open" button I would like this to happen: Open a certain report making program I made myself.When they finished writing their report and press save, the program saves this report on a dedicated network HDD (.txt file) and closes itself.Then add the file or link to the upload form in Vip Task Manager.What it all comes down to is that they dont have to minimize Vip task manager, open the report making software, save it, go to vip task manager, press upload, press open, look where this file is saved, select it, and upload it.now, typed in red is whats already been taken care of.The rest, I have no idea where to begin to be honest.First I want to find out how to retrieve that a button is pressed in a existing program. (dont know which code it is written in and it is not open source)

I have a lot of keyboard keys stored in different formats. For example, "Up" may be stored as a string, as a decimal (200) or as hex (C8). I need to convert all of this different representations to strings so they can be easily understood by the user, and then back again when I save them.When I capture the key press using the KeyDown event, I can grab the decimal value from KeyEventArgs.KeyCode, which can easily be converted to hex if needed.

View 8 RepliesI've finished my chat spammer, and it's not working the way it's suppose to (In Game). However, it works properly in chat rooms. Instead of it spamming once per line, it clumps the messages together.
If FormOptions.ChFilter.Checked = False And FormOptions.CHad.Checked = False And FormOptions.ChTroll.Checked = False Then
SendKeys.Send(TxtSpam.Text)
SendKeys.Send("{enter}")
ElseIf FormOptions.CHad.Checked And FormOptions.ChFilter.Checked = False

It works if I don't check anything (This code):
If FormOptions.ChFilter.Checked = False And FormOptions.CHad.Checked = False And FormOptions.ChTroll.Checked = False Then
SendKeys.Send(TxtSpam.Text)
SendKeys.Send("{enter}")
But the "troll" ones with multi-lines don't.
I want to know if i click button1 then it's auto press keys.Tab and then keys.Enter.
