I have a loop that takes text from a richtexbox, and pasts it into a field on a html web form within a webbrowser control.When i run my code, it goes to where it copy/pastes the text, however it keeps doing this over and over and over and over again, it wont just copy and paste 1 time, and stop.[code]
View 1 RepliesI 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

View 2 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.

View 2 RepliesI have created my own web browser by dragging the web browser control into a form using Visual Basic 2008 in order to host my ASP.Net pages. However, it is a requirement of the project I am working that users should not be able to use hot keys, especially print screen, ctrl P, ctrl C, and ctrl V. There are no other controls on my form, so how can stop users using these keys, but only in this browser? Further, my asp.net page uses an iframe tag to show a word document, and again, I need to stop them from copying and pasting from the word document into another word document through the browser. Can I stop them in my browser in app stack?

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).

I'm trying to develop macros for games. I'm currently coding with vb 2010 and I'm using the keybd_event API. It works great, I've done many working macros but I cannot find a way to send arrow strokes using this API. (Left, Right, Up, Down) I don't want to use the numpad. Here is what I've found: [Code] For some reason, nothing happens, no keystroke seems to have been sent. When I use any other ascii decimal from the ascii table, it does work but not for the arrow strokes.
