I am absolutely not making a key logger. Second of all, this is for personal use only, I just want to try it out since I am trying to build a virus scanner. What code would assist me in recording key strokes in the background?
View 6 RepliesHow to send keystrokes to an application that does not have focus and is not selected. i have read about sendmessage, but am not sure how to use it or anything, not even sure if its what i need.
i dont need to send anything but normal character keystrokes

I have this problem for some days now and i did not figure it out yet.When i use 2 buttons one for recording and one to stop recording is just fine, but when i use a timer to stop recording does not stop.
Here`s my First i have a button named start recording which calls the Public Sub record and enables timerRecordStop to TRUE.

What I am doing is making a key shortcut program where the user can set that if he presses a certain key combination from anywhere on his computer while the program is still running, a defined action or program will execute. I know how to use the keyup or keydown to get the key input when the form is focused but how do you get the key input when the form is not focused or hidden. The form will be minimized to an icon in the system tray. I have not started working on the program yet since the whole purpose of the program is this.

View 9 RepliesI am making a little application to provide a simple GUI for editing controls for some old games that use INI files to store their config.I have just come across the following ini file key but I can't see how it is storing the controls. It is meant to be for an NES pad, which has 8 buttons - Up, Down, Left, Right, Start, Select, A, B.

View 3 RepliesIs there Any way to handle the crtl + Alt + Del Key combination. Take for instance in a quiz application (Win Forms ), the user should not be able to switch to other windows till the test is over.
I'm able to capture the ctrl and alt key strokes individually, using c# standard properties. but once they user hits the del key . The control goes out of my appliation and windows handles it.
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.
View 2 RepliesI am trying to record many small MP3 files from my computer's microphone. There are numberous examples using mciSendString Library "Winmm.dll" to record .wav files. I find the .wav quality to be lacking and I really want to record straight into the MP3 format rather than converting my .wav files.

View 2 Repliesi recently downloaded a demo game "Delta Force Xtreme 2 BETA". the game it's self, looks like vb3 does when compared to vb.net 2oo8.. one thing about it, on the startup screen, it plays a decent track of music..
i want to record that sound, in wav format, i guess, directly from my speakers. i googled all day, hoping to learn something about playing/recording sound, and i got nowhere.. so i finally decided to post here, after searching the forum for answers, again, without any luck..
i'm not looking for links to sites that the code is not tested before the link is posted.
just a form with 3 buttons. 1 to record, 2 to stop and save, and 3 to play. again, the sound should be recorded directly from the speakers.

View 1 RepliesAm new to the VB platform and have only been messing around with 2008 for a few months,off and on.Have built a rotational inertia based Dynamometer for personal use in my R/C hobby.Have written some code that allows me to read roller frequency,that is then figured to roller RPM,and eventually ,vehicle ground speed.
Now before anyone shoots me down,( I don't mean this to be sarcastic,but I have received negativity on other forums) I know that ,because of various interupts on my P.C.,that the windows timers aren't all that accurate,causing me to miss incoming signals that screw up my measurements, and the best thing is an external aquisition unit.Let me just say that I run my VB program parallel to an external frequency counter,and have at any given time a difference of max. 8 hz at higher revs.Also I use an external timer based counter that figures the ground speed ,and it also is within a half KmH.This is only a hobby for me and that's close enough.Someday I may build something that does the computing externally and gives it to VB,but for now.........So now to the good part
Here's my question: How can I write code that will let me record the RPM ,from TextBox2, at each timer interval,and have them listed?
I need this to calculate the RPM changes per interval in order to establish "angular acceleration" ,for further calculations.
In Addition,I need a way for my program to know when something changes or does'nt.If I start my programm and don't run the dyno ( no signals) then it will start saving a bunch of zero's that I don't need,and when I get to the end of the run,the RPM will top off(no change in signals)but keep saving.The best would be,start recording when the 1st signal is detected and stop recording when the signals stop changing, and tell me I can stop.
But I'm not that advanced.........yet.
The next problem is that I have no idea,depending on what vehicle I test, how many intervals will be recorded, as one may or may not take longer to reach max.RPM.
Heres what I have so far:
Public Class Form1
Dim product1 As Double
Dim product2 As Double

My project uses an MS Access Database, and amongst other things records the current cost of a series of categories which are regularly updated, thereby erasing the previous entry. However, I need to retain all previous costs to produce a history graph for given periods. I have considered importing an Excel spreadsheet, but having a functioning database it seems sensible to use it.

I am using query from a SQLite database as the AutocompleteCustomSource for a ComboBox. Also, I want to load data in separate thread.

I achieve to record and stop recording (manually with a button).
Now i want somehow to automatically stop recording after some seconds.
I used the following methods which did not work:
1. Used a timer to call the stoprecording function (I found out that while recording the timer did not work) I tested it with an msgbox and i was right, the msg box appeared 5 secs after pressing the stoprecording button!!!!
2. Used the System.Timers.Timer but nothing
3. I tried the CAPTUREPARMS structure but i`m doing something wrong and it doesn`t record.
Here`s my initialization:
Dim MyParams As New CAPTUREPARMS
With MyParams

I Would like to make an appliaction in c# (or vb.net) that records every sound that comes out from the speakers when i tell it to, and when im finished i want to push a button and save it as an mp3 (or some other format).
So far i have only found APIs that can record something from a microphone.
Is there anything in the .NET framework or is there some API for making this possible?
I have a database in MSSQL that I'm using in a VB.NET project. Three of the fields are dates, so I leave the default DateTimePicker as the means of entry. The problem is, when I make a new record, the date from the DateTimePicker only makes it to the database if I select a date. If I leave it as the default(today), then the information does not record, leaving a NULL in the database.
