Apr 9, 2012I have a filter that is used to populate a grid view and the url will conain: /example/grid?value1=1&value2=2

Is this possible? How do I hold on and fill in the URL values so it knows how to refill the grid view accordingly?
Send Mouse Click To Another Window?
Jan 14, 2012I've done some research and still cannot find a working solution. I am basically setting the foreground window with AppActivate to Google Chrome. This works fine. Then I set the cursor location to a specific point. Fortunately, the last step of this process is to send a left mouse click but the code below occurs with an exception and does not execute:
Public Declare Auto Function SetCursorPos Lib "User32.dll" (ByVal X As Integer, ByVal Y As Integer) As Long
Public Declare Auto Function GetCursorPos Lib "User32.dll" (ByRef lpPoint As Point) As Long

VS 2008 : Send A Mouse Click To A Window That Seem To Not Accept Them?
Mar 25, 2010how do you send a mouse click to a window that seem to not accept them? I have tried sendmessage/postmessage, mouse_event and sendinput. None of them seem to work. Whenever the target window is in the foreground, i cant set the cursor position or do mouse_event click at all. But once it went to the back, everything works... cursor.position moves the mouse, sendinput and mouse_event can click on a different window, just not the one i want.

This will allow you to macro and do what ever you do on the computer at the same time.
View 4 RepliesGet The Window's Handle Once It Has Been Minimized?
Mar 1, 2012<DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError:=True)> _
Private Shared Function SetActiveWindow(ByVal hWnd As IntPtr) As IntPtr
End Function
[Code]......
I'm trying to make use of some functionality from an external app in my program.
My problem is this:
My program manages to start the external app correctly and I can even get the WinHandle correctly if I don't use "ProcessWindowStyle.Minimized" when starting the app.
If I start the app minimized, WinHandle = ProcID.MainWindowHandle returns a 0 and as I understand it, it's
because the app is hidden in the system tray.
How can I start the app minimized and then get the window's handle once it has been minimized?
I've tried various functions like FindWindow and BringWindowToTop but none of them seem to work.

Forms :: ListView.TopItem And Minimized Window?
Jun 15, 2011I have an issue in a project trying to auto-scroll down a ListView (used as Details with columns) when adding a new ListViewItem when the window is minimized. I guess we have to use TopItem property to set force the listview to scroll down.I get two exceptions when the form is minimized: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." "Index (zero based) must be greater than or equal to zero and less than the size of the argument list."
I'm just using standard .Net components (Events/Delegate) with standard way to use them.

View 6 RepliesMouse Hover And Mouse Leave To Open And Close The Window Form
Nov 5, 2009how to raise the mouse leave and mouse hover events for VB when i place my mouse cursor over the button.
When my mouse cursor is over the buttons, it will raise the mouse hover event and open the form, then when the mouse leaves the button, it will close the form upon raising the mouse leave event.
but currently, When i excute this two events, the for will open and close very,very fast. so fast that it is like spamming the VB.
So i am wondering how to change the code that i have to excecute the event one time every time the mouse is over the button which is created at run time.
the codes to execute these two events are:
Private Sub Button_MouseLeave(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
