How can I click left mouse button in code?
View 3 RepliesI'm running a survey to count how many times a user clicks the left mouse button. But the mouse click applies outside of the form, even applies to clicking start or other locations of the of the PC when the form has been minimized with a NotifyIcon. I know how to count the mouse clicks within a form but not outside the form. Somehow I feel I need to use a timer event but need it to apply outside the form. The timer tick event doesn't have a e.button event or mouse down event or mouse click for that matter. Whats a good way to get this function to apply outside the form?

What im trying to do is when u have the mouse hold down you can drag the button to the position of your mouse, however all it does on mouse down is move it to the bottom right and if i keep click it will keep going down til its off the screen.
Im trying to make a drag drop styled interface for user customization.
Is it possible with API to see what file is being clicked on with the mouse globally?
Ex: On desktop(or anywhere), mouse clicks a folder/file. <The below part would be easy,considering I would already have the above> Usage - A label generates the folder name/file name.
I thought maybe that the DragQueryFile Function would suffice. But, I think that is geared towards a drag and drop operation from with in a .net form.
I insert a text box into form1. I move the mouse pointer on top of the text box. I press down on the left mouse button and begin to drag the text box. The problem is when I let go of the mouse button the text box is not dropped. it remain floating around. My only way out of this is to press the escape key which places the text bnox bak to its original location. Thinking that it might be my mouse I tested it in Power point and everything works correctly.

View 8 RepliesI'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 RepliesIn WinXP with LV FullRowSelect enabled I can press and hold down the left mouse button and drag it down the right side of the left-most LV column and the rows are selected, but under Win7 I can only multiselect items with the mouse if FullRowSelect is set to false.
So I guess I need to write code to support this sort of feature for Win7 ? , and if true are there any code examples (I can't find anything) to save me some time?
I'm currently debugging a form that sets a flag when the mouse button is pressed, then clears the flag when the mouse button is released. As long as the mouse button is pressed, the user can move the mouse around and a few things happen depending on where they move. One of the things that happens is that a timer starts, or stops, and a few things change color depending on the mouse position. The timer starts when it should, then stops when it should, but once stopped, it is not re-starting when it should. I can verify that MouseMove events are getting through, because coloring changes as I move the mouse, as it should. This would be a simple thing to debug...except that it requires the darn mouse button to be down, and it uses the mouse move event. Anybody who has put a breakpoint in a mouse move event handler knows the issue: There are THOUSANDS of them. Worse yet, since the mouse button is necessary for switching to the IDE, as well as setting a breakpoint (technically, a keyboard shortcut could do this if I could shift focus), I can't wait for the problem to happen, then switch to the IDE and set a breakpoint to see what is happening then.Does anybody have any tips or techniques for debugging in mouse move events when the mouse button is down and has to stay that way? As it is, I'm going to have to write some funky code into the method just so that I have a place to get a breakpoint when I need it without breaking on every one of the mouse move events.

View 2 RepliesI am putting two questions in one thread. I am using VS2008 Pro.
1- Why my application stops running when I 'Click and hold the left mouse button' and resume after releasing the mouse button on Titlebar? i.e. why this happens when I grab the title bar? How can I avoid this so that my application run regardless if the form is moving or title bar is grabbed with mouse while debugging?
2- I want to make one button to pause the whole application then restart the application from the point where it stopped.
I need to have a VB form that runs out of focus behind another program. When I press "A" (I'll use "A" and "B" as my example keys), "B" is then sent to the program in focus from the VB form and held until "A" is pressed again.
I've worked out how to get it to repeat a key press hundreds of times but I need it to HOLD the key, rather than to just Press and De-press countless times.Here's the piece of code which repeats the letter "A" 100 times:
Dim Index As Integer 'My count variable
For Index = 1 To 100 'Count from 1 to 100
